Tool Montage

Response
This project was very enjoyable. Getting together with fellow classmates to create the mind-maps was fun and using the ideas generated from them to create thumbnails was a very fast way to generate decent ideas. The thumbnail sheet was very useful, a small space to draw in forces you to only focus on the important details of the image.

Mind-map

Tool Combos (red=the 10 combos I drew, blue=unused)

1. Clock + Eye — Grandfather clock with an eye instead of clock face, or an eye with a clock instead of cornea.
2. Diamonds + Dogs — Dogs with diamond strong teeth, or royal diamond dogs.
3. Sign + Pyramid
4. Trees + Fuel
5. Board + Flowers
6. Socks + Money
7. Cable + Plane
8. Football + Ella Fitzgerald
9. Feet + Shell
10. Ship + Coal
11. Cacti + Treasure
12. Cards + Gems — Cards made of gems or a card game using gems. Just a nice card game perhaps.
13. VHS + Earbuds
14. Ocean + Rock
15. Sun + Golf — I imagine super powerful deities would enjoy playing golf with the sun.
16. Chocolate + Wrench
17. Turkey + Car
18. Uniform + Grass — Thought of ghillie suits that snipers use. Also grass that is uniformly cut.
19. Smoke + Plane — Some sort of anti-smoking plane or plane made out of smoke.
20. Time + Shoes
21. Robot + Nukes — Basically just a badass super weapon. Robots are really fun to draw, but doing the thumbnails was hard.
22. Stereo + Headphones — Thought of headphones that play outwards rather than into your ears.
23. Bolts + Zipper
24. Headband + Hardhat — Would be very useless for actually protecting your head.
25. Bread + Chips — I’ve always wondered why there aren’t many bread flavored/shaped chips out there…
