However unless we know how to execute that model, make sure it stands properly, make sure that the correct colours are used and make sure that it is structurally secure as well as well composed to transmit the idea as well as it is in our mind we will struggle to convey our idea in a model. Here you can see students actually working on various structures, forms, 3 D structures and learning the basic art of 3 D model making.
