Sketch

Here is my first sketch for what i am thinking of doing for this project
 There will be 4 of the curved sides and a 2 rings which hold them in their shape

quick sketches



Here are just some quick sketches which i did for possibilities for this project. As you can see some of them are about the same shape as the lamp and vase. One of the sketches is of one of my 81 iterations.

precedent images for project 2

When i was looking for materials for DSDN 112 at bunnings i saw this really cool lava lamp. I cant find an image of this lamo but i found an image of a normal lava lamp which looked really similar

The Lamp i found had more curves to it but this is similar. The vase bellow also has the sort of shape which i am hoping to get in this project

'Hero image'

This is the image of my final model which i decided to use


I decided to render the image using copper and to have to ball in the middle as glass


Here was an image i was thinking to use for my final




Because my 3 words are related to the sun i decided to put my final image in the place of the sun 


All 81 models

Here is a pic of all of my 81 models which i have done

development

After making my model in solid works i transfered it into 3DS Max 
I also added a sphere into the object.


When i started to do iterations to the object i decided to get rid of the sphere and to try and completly change the object from its original for



iterations 1-3


For the first few iterations i just twisted the whole object of just selected different parts of the object.

1-9



After about 4 iterations my objects started to get a more 3D form which is what i quite like. From how it came out in iterations 1-9 i really like what it looked like but i don't want to just use twist for all 81 of my iterations.

10-18


When it got to the 15th iteration i decided to start again from iteration 3 because the objects i was making looked like they were just completly twisted with itself and i wanted to try and get a proper object. I also re added the sphere in iteration 17

19-36

 

At iteration 33 i again stated again but from iteration 15, from what i saw from the iteration they again started to look like they were all just completly twisted with itself.

37-54

  At iteration 43 i started again but from iteration 34. I really liked how iteration 42 looked so i decided to just start again at that point instead of continueing with it. At about iteration 48 my object started to get a robotic look to it which i really liked.

55-72

Im these iterations i decided to get rid of the sphere again becuse the object was turning into more of a sphere and it didnt look that good when it had a shere in a shere. At iteration 56 i started again from iteration 34


73-81


These are my final 9 iterations for this project. At model 74 i started again from iteration 1 and try and make them different from how i started

Final


Here is the the object which i have chosen for my final. It is iteration number 35. I really like the look of this model. I chose it because i think that it is the best object which represents my 3 words which i have chosen.


 All 81


 This is all my 81 iterations set up in one file




3 Words

I have chosen my 3 words which i am going to use for this project.

They are

Solar
Radiate
Symmetry

I chose those words because i think that all 3 of those words are represented in the image i have found for which i am going to be making into my 3D model
