Castle Reimagined

Image
      So like last week, I did a castle but this time I decided to added more details and fix up the original. And that means starting from scratch        I started like I did last week with making an outline with circles, but this time I also used rectangles to mark where I want the battlements and ramparts by using the rotate tool with copy on so it will look even.      Then I extruded everything with extrude curve and cut it with boolean  difference.      Already looks so much better and we aren't even done the outer walls. Now I take two circles and two squares to make arch doorways and windows, I pushed a copy of this layout to the side to save for later.     I used the revolve tool to help me get the shape all the way around through each tower, then cut the shape from each tower. N ow we have doorways in the towers.      (I took this screenshot before I did the ramparts)  ...

       For this weeks project, I was tasked with making a castle using basic geomatry and some of the following commands in Rhino 3D:           - extrude           - loft (which I didn't use)           - revolve            - move           - copy           - rotate  I also used the Boolean Difference command to cut shapes out, so Im just going to call it the cut tool from here on out, including future posts     My first step was to make the layout of the walls, I also decided to make a walkway on the top of the wall hence for the extra circles. The second step was to use the extrude command to get the cylinders ready for the cutting command (aka Boolean Difference) as shown with the image below. Next I followed the same steps as the walls to make towers along the pe...

First week project

For our first week, I was tasked with making a 3D model using cubes summarizing what I did this past summer. Since I was in the precollege program, I did a paint pallet and brush.
