OBDF 210 - Castle


   This is my process for the castle project, it's been a while since I've played with the Rhino 6 program so this was a great recap. The biggest struggle I had was trying to figure out how to BooleanDifference the tower pieces initially, I kept selecting the wrong pieces to cut out of. Mine became very symmetrical (for now?) and sort of empty inside the outer walls. 
    Started with the towers, and then I did the walls with the circular "carvings" into the top for decoration. I tried to do the entire interior design with rooms and doors but quickly realized the walls would have covered the details eventually anyways, so I just left the castle with four rooms.

  1. I love the how you added the curves on top of the walls, really give that castle look! If that makes sense haha. Like how you added the draw bridge too! Good job!

Memorial Jewellery Documentation I

Hello! It is technically the "summer" and I have an assignment to create a death artifact for a deceased character. I've dug deep into my childhood to find Ember McLain from the Nickelodeon animated series 'Danny Phantom'. She passed away as a teenage aspiring musician in the early 1970s in Amity Park America. So I thought it'd be cool to mash up the American 1970's early punk era with the formal memorial diamond/jewellery death artifact.  I came up with some sketches after researching the different types of diamond cuttings and earring designs I could go with. Since Ember wore a purple dual earlobe set throughout the show, I thought I'd also create a memorial earring set that follows that theme. Following her colour palette of blue, purple, black, and grey, I ended up choosing the blue memorial diamond option since it was better than the black synthetic gem for a family memorial piece. Then I paired it with silver for the rest of the earring design si

Reverse Engg Object: HD Render and Exploded View

     This reverse engineering project was about learning the tools of rhino by creating an object of our choice digitally. Using a calliper and precise measurements, we were to create a replica of a mechanical object to be pretty much exact. With the limitations of no organic or soft objects, no weapons, and must be complex/simple enough to finish within the three-week frame.      I chose an old pair of scissors as my object to replicate. It started out simple, though it was harder than I thought to wrap my head around a pair of scissors than I thought. Maybe it was because I had a year break in between last year's 3D modelling and rendering, but for the smallest things, I couldn't process for hours. This project took at least 11.5 hrs to do. I got stuck in some places like the angled blade, curvature of the handles, and finding the smallest slip-ups that caused an open shape. I know I had drawn some parts separately but when I tried to assemble them and boolean-split the screw
