Time for action – creating the slingshot

Most of the slingshot's appearance will actually be an optical illusion:

1. To start off the creation of the slingshot, add the slingshot model to the scene and position it at the origin. Apply a light brown material to the Fork model and a dark brown one to the Pouch model.

2. Next, we need four empty GameObject. Make them all the children of the Slingshot object.

   • Name the first FocalPoint and center it between the fork prongs of the slingshot. This will be the point through which we fire all of the birds.

   • The second is Pouch. Make the pouch model a child of this object, setting its position to 0.5 on the X axis and 0 on the Y and Z axes. This will make the pouch appear in front of the current bird without having to make a complete pouch model.

   • Third is BirdPoint; this will position the bird that is being fired. Make it a child of the Pouch point and set its position to 0 on the X and Y axes and 0.3 on the Z axis.

   • Last is WaitPoint; the birds waiting to be fired...
