For my object, I chose an item from my favourite Nintendo Switch game: Animal Crossing New Horizons. This item is one of the elephant watering cans you can make and use in the game. I thought this object would be interesting to break down into simple shapes. The watering can considers the idea of hollowness and the papercraft process focuses on unwrapped shapes being constructed into hollow three-dimensional objects creating a parallel between the object and its crafting process.
I started with some sketches to get a general idea of the shapes I would need to use for different parts of the watering can and then broke down the object into smaller simpler shapes numbering each shape to stay organized.
