Honoring Medicine – Part I

Weekly Blog Entry Research & Project Updates (6)

With the Vaccination space modeled, I have turned my attention to the pieces on display within the new wing. As of now, most are completed, this upcoming week will be dedicated to creating the last few pieces, and UVing all of them for Phase III before I turn my focus over to my paper again. See details below…

Here are the assets completed thus far, all together...
