Paper Bridge project

I'll start posting all the assignments I've already worked on so there's some semblance of an idea of where all this stuff is coming from. But, I don't think I'll be posting my animation assignments necessarily... not sure how to handle video yet. Anyway, here's the first thing I have chronological records of: the paper bridge.



It failed miserably. The half-circles in the middle (as I realized later) would have been better served as one large half-pipe with an opening at either end of the bridge. As the way it is, all the weight is being dumped out to the sides where there's no support. If I used the half-pipe instead, all the weight would've instead been relocated to where the bridge is supported at the ends, so whatever was in the in the middle would've held out.
