Internet is back so I can post some studies. Hoping to understand something new before drawing group starts next week.

Concept Render

Ended up playing on the PP forums again. Wanted to do a scene but didn't have the time to come up with an original concept and so went with the portrait background contest. This is the final image. Might tweak it to make it better in the future.

Fabrication Test

Decided to delve into Rapid Prototyping a couple of months ago and this piece came out of it. It's nothing fancy, just a test of how much detail Stratasys machines can take and just wanting to see how something done in a simulated 3D environment translates into something tactile.

This turned out well although I wish I had more time to make a more solid design since the process is still pretty expensive. The pieces were printed out in plastic using the Fused Deposition Method. I'm hoping I can get into making stainless steel prints although in a smaller scale soon and see how far this technique can be pushed. Fun stuff! :D

Virtual 3D:

3D prints:

Welp, that's the start.

Tests

Concept work in progress. Taking a bit longer than expected.

In which specifications were not followed and many a brain asploshunz occurred.
