Finals


For my final photo i wanted to show that it is quite relfective and that there is alot of stuff in the middle of it.
Unfortunatly there are some broken bits of my model in the center. This was from cleaning the real tight spaces.

 Final photo

I really like how my render came out. I think that the idea of valuable and expensive is shown well. I think that it looks quite realistic with the reflections and shadows

Final render

Here are my final for project 3

Final 3



I think that just from these images even without much light looks valuable and how i want them to come across




Gold and Silver are used in all 3 models and i have glass and grome in the two which came from the atom
For my finals i want my materials to have as valuable metals.

development 4



I think the scene i have works well for how i am trying to get my point across

Becuase i want to show that my models are valuable i want to have them in some sort of case in a show room.





Next i decided to focus on the scene for my final render

My model came out quite well

development 3


I had to get rid of the center oval because it made it to condensed in the middle



After my model was printed all the sides were to thin and they all snapped when i was trying to clean it so i had to redo my model and make all the sides thicker

I decided to have this model as my final



To make it look even better i decided to put a sort of cage around it which would hold it all in place



After talking with Richard (my tutor) he gave me the idea copying and twisting my model around each other

development 2


These are 2 different possible texture styles i am thinking of having




 I decided on a hexagon texture and make it go right around the
 I started adding textures to my first model.

I just copied and inverted my model. I like how the ball is in the middle and acts kind of like a core


On my second model i did some small changes to make it look better

development



I only really need to have one solid works part becuase i can make the rest of it in 3DS max




I then started doing the other image in solid works

I really like this object and i am thinking of having this as my final model.



 When i was done with these 3 i exported then into 3DS max



All of the ovals are slightly smaller than each other

I started with the oval rings.

After i have chosen the images which i am going to expand on i put them into solidworks

Patterns




Here are some images which could be a good idea for a pattern

I really want to have some sort of patten when goes right around my model. Something to make it seem not as smooth.

Quick sketches

The two image which that are like an atom i am thinking of combining and making a model which has aspects of both sketches in it

These are the 3 images which i am going to expand on for my project 3




Here are some quick 2D sketches for what i am thinking of maybe doing for project 3

project 3 precedent images

My final image is for focusing on what i want the materials on my object to look like on the computer. I want to make it something valuable. And when i think of valuable and expensive i always think of gold and silver. So for my final render i want to make it look like something which would be worth a lot of money and to be cherished.

For the image of the spider i was thinking of making something that has a core in the middle and stuff that branches out of it like the spiders legs. Unlike this image though i would want the core to be elevated and be supported by the legs
 Image 5

For this image i was thinking of having a shape like this but condensing it a bit. I want to keep the nucleus of the atom and have the 3 rings around it but all on the same plane instead of like the image about and have them in different directions.


 
 
Image 4

 Picture 2 and 3 are linked together. I really like the idea of spirals and how they are quite hard to make 3D. When i was picturing something which i could make from this image i had the idea of having something like the spiral staircase and having 2 or 3 of them combined together so they look like several different spirals in one.

Image 2


My first image is from the xbox 360 game Halo 3. The image about is symmetrical so it would be easier to make on solid works. All of the parts coming out of the center are curved. I like this because i could imagine making something which started off at the base and then curves up around it.

 
Image 1

For project 3 i wanted to do something which i could only do in 3D printing and no other program. So for my precedent images i wanted them to have shapes which would be hard to do some other way

3D prints


I really like the idea that with 3D printing you can do things which you wouldn't be able to do with other programs or by hand. So for project 3 i want to do something like that.












 






I did a google search on 3D printed objects to see what kind of things you can make from 3D printing and here are some of the images which i found which i think are quite interesting
