I kind of want to go for a circular design that's more on the minimalistic side but I also want to try out those kinds of patterns you see on gift wraps.
This was the type of project I didn't know how to start. When thinking of castles, usually the first type of castles that pops into mind are the princess-Disney-medieval European castles. But thinking further, I remembered Asia has pretty neat castles of their own — so I went to research some castles from East Asia and that's when I got inspired. Since I really like making things more on the fantasy side of the spectrum, I wanted mine to be a castle floating in the sky. The Blue Castle in Japan was one of the main inspirations to the look of my castle. I started off with the smaller buildings surrounding the castle, which was not too hard since they were just basic extruded rectangle and squares. The hardest parts of the building may have been building the roofs. It took me awhile, but since roof isn't exactly a regular triangle, I figured out I had to loft a rectangle to a slimmer rectangle to make the shape of it. Next was making the castle itself. It has a similar...
On the second part of the scavenger hunt, I made a pattern that was inspired by some designs I found around the house and ones while browsing the internet. I really like that peter pan/nature aesthetic so I wanted it to look and or feel like so. My main inspiration on what I wanted my pattern/design to look, other than from the pictures I took in the scavenger hunt post, was a compass and mandala art: My Inspo from the previous scavenger hunt: I first started the center design, which was a star and leaves. For the star I used the polygon tool, clicked the star option and changed the sides to 4. As for the leaves, I started of drawing the line work with the poly tool and then rotating the finished leaf. After, I added more triangles and with the poly tool and circles with the ellipse tool to shape the compass/arrow part of the design. Since, I wanted to make my design look more like a flower I rotated different sized circles and rotated them. Then I trimmed the unwanted parts to make ha...
Project 1: Castle This project was a refresher for the basic tools on rhino. The castle project was probably my most favourite out of the rest. It was where I got to play around with rhino while making a fun fictional scenery. Project 3: Reverse Object Project 3 was most likely one of most successful ones. It was the hardest to make though since the laser was small and I had to do a lot of engineering on it. But all in all, I think it turned out pretty well. Project 2: Surface Design Though was the simplest ones out of all the projects, to me I find that it turned out well. Instead of having a full blown pattern across the board, I opted to having a pattern that is reminiscent of a compass to make it fun.
