Course Objectives The course aims to teach students model making in the design process through the use of various materials and techniques.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Examine different materials and details used in product design
  • Analyze the product with a critical point of view
  • Differentiate production techniques (laser, cnc etc.)
  • Increase product finishing quality (paint, paste etc.)
  • Prepare a models with high quality
Course Content Examination of existing design products and modeling of the materials used as much as possible with the same production technique; evaluation of realistic models produced with a professional point of view; gaining hand skills, sensitivities and perceptions.

Weekly Subjects and Releated Preparation Studies

Week Subjects Preparation
1 Introduction to the course. Introduction of materials and tools. Provision of tools and materials needed.
2 Examination of the product to be modeled, showing the appropriate method for 1/1 scale model Product review and initial steps
3 Production of model with model cardboard and Styrofoam in correct scale Product review and initial steps
4 Correct segmentation of the model to give the correct form to the model with the model cardboard and Styrofoam Deciding on materials for making different parts
5 Bringing all model components together Preparation of all parts properly
6 Paste application and sanding Pasting and sanding the whole model
7 Paint application and masking Determining the colors to be used, masking the necessary places of the model and painting and completing
8 Making scaled models using one or more of the following techniques: laser, cnc cutting, turning, etc. Selecting and examining the product to be modeled
9 Modeling of the product with the computer and selecting the method-material to be used The product must be drawn in the required program and provision of materials needed
10 Teaching by observing factory or workshop production method Completion and cutting of material and drawing
11 Techniques for bringing the cut product for paint, etc. Cleaning and finishing of the cut product and completion
12 Final project: Making a scale and realistic model using some of the techniques learned in the previous lessons Product selection and analysis
13 Determining the right materials and production techniques criteria for the model to be realistic Model development
14 Final project, critics Model development
15 Detailing finishing operations; Pvc foil, serigraphy techniques etc. Bringing the model to the last stage
