During Week 2, we experimented with bioplastics in order to create the skin of the mannequin.

You can check the link here and here to refer to the first iteration of this process.

I will only add that an interesting and unexpected result was the creation of a composite material composed by bioplastic + paper from the foamboard we used to cure the bioplastic.

LESSONS LEARNED

If you want to add an illustration or decorated pattern to your bioplastic, laying it on top of a paper sheet and letting it cure will do the trick 😁
