The Process of Design and Fabrication

Here is the beginning of my sketches I am hoping for much more, this is just an early stage. It is my humble opinion that the sketches represented in this work is too messy, and I wish I had put more time into working out the ideas. Check it out. While they are cool looking I have no clue what i am looking at. Since the sketches were meant to be attached to objects, next time thinking about the objects first and the subjects second would have been a much better less hasty and well designed approach, Here is an example of something I was working on while in the class for the dust cover of my record player.
