I am a big fan of Marvel movies and wanted to make something that is from the movies. One of the more prominent characters in the recent films is the infamous villain, Thanos. He wears a gauntlet in which he can carry Infinity stones to which he can use to wipe out mass populations. This…

For this post I figured it would be most beneficial for me to make a list with descriptions for both of my top 5 specifications and constraints. Materials for my artifact are still in transit, but should arrive by today or tomorrow (04/07/2021 – 04/08/2021). Both of these lists come from the feedback session during…
