Sierra's Creative Adventure

 Step 1: Cage Bottom Basic Shape I started by creating the basic shape of the bottom of the cage section of the assembly, making sure to keep strict adherence to the measurements of the real world object. This was created with simple circles and lines which were then trimmed. Step 2: Cage Bottom Basic Depth After I had the basic shape of the bottom of the cage I copied the shape in place and then adjusted its height to match the height of the object. I later found that I could not create surfaces between the two sets of curves and therefore resorted to extruding the surfaces of the bottom set of curves. Step 3: Cage Bottom connect top and bottom curves Before realizing that I would be unable to make surfaces between the 2 sets of curves I used lines to connect them together with the idea that they would help me to build the needed surfaces. Step 4: cage bottom create basic surfaces This is the result after I extruded the surface of the bottom curves to the proper height. Step 5: ca...

 Kettle Modelling Step 1: Base Image To start I took a screen grab of the the object that was being modelled in the tutorial and got it to the proper scale. Step 2: Basic shape I then drew out half of the basic shape, ignoring curves for the time being. Step 3: Fillet main body curves and revolve tool After I had the basic shape of the main body I filleted the corners to make them match the profile of the image and used the rotate command to create the main body of the kettle. Step 4: Spout general shape I then drew out the basic shape of the spout, roughly in the center of the spout in the base image. Step 5: Spout fillet I then filleted corners in the spout line so that it more closely matched the base image. Step 6: Pipe tool I then used the pipe command to turn the line into a 3d object with the correct diameter. Step 7: Trimmed spout I then got rid of the excess material from the spout. Step 8: Lid handle basic shape Drew out half of the basic shape of the the lid's handle. I ...
