Minecraft: Bring your name to life. Bring Te Reo to life.

                                         Bring your name to life                            

On every second Thursday for 3 weeks, Sharons Kiawheana have been doing Minecraft.

I did bring my name to life

So as most people know, Minecraft is only cubes, and squares..

IMAGINE DOING MY Z's!!!

The problem is I can't do diagonals.....

Screeches 

 

My name was Mushroom themed, and it had Jack'o Lanterns. Meaning it glows, but in the files I couldn't see my name at night.  
Yes, I did ask the teacher..
But.. We wont get into that story

If you would to see my name: Ta, DA!!

Bring Te Reo to life!

So or this one I HAD to do my favourite Maori bird, the Tui..
I had heaps of trouble getting it to look like a Tui, but the Internet saved me with photos.
I dont have alot to say about the Tui..
But its sitting on a plant...


... If you dont know what Tuis look like.. Dont use this as a refrence...

What I (Mostly) did in the holidays!

 In the holidays, the thing I wasted MOST of my time on was drawing on my tablet.
I have one of those PBTECH tablets, that are called Wacoms..
...
Uhm.. I have one.. There like the second to best thing you can have to draw on digital with, I was REALLY happy with it and still LOVE it to this day!

Its basicly just a tablet that comes with a pen and a plug, you plug the plug into the laptop and the tablet, then you open the softwares the tablet came with and use the pen! Its pretty simple and its great fitting for me! Heres a picture of one! 

Isnt it beautuiful?  
I love it! Know what? IT MIGHT BE MY PRIZED POSTESSION!
And the pen doesnt need to charge!! I couldnt stop talking about this when I first got it!
(July 14th/my baday) 


I would show you some pics of what I drew, but I cant really because I do the drawings on my Mums PC Windows 10.
(The tablet only avalible for Windows PC's 10-11, or get a different type of tablet)

I do screenshot them and TRY to send them to my chromebook (The thing I use for school/a tiny laptop)
It just doesn't WORK! (Insert sad face here)
Hope you enjoyed me talking about my piece of tech-

"NO, I WONT LET YOU STOP TALKING ABOUT IT!" Said Izzys brain
"What else would I write?" Said Izzy
"ABOUT WHAT YOU FEEL, WHAT YOU SMELL, AND THINK?" Said her brain again
"Smell? Huh?" Said Izzy
"Well- the just what you feel and think while doing it!" Said her brain
"Aren't you in charge of what I think???" Said Izzy
"JUST WRITE IT ALREADY, I WILL TELL YOU ON THE WAY!" Said the brain again


I just realised how sassy my brain is.
Well, anyways.
What do I think while.. Using my Wacom?
I dont actually look at the Wacom, I look at the screen, the screen has where my curser is, so I can see what Im doing (And because it has my tools)
So what I think is what Im drawing, what Im aiming for, and what I want to draw.
So, for example:



I want to draw.. This Wolfy, then I just think what it looks like!
