Further Model Choices and Sketches

We were all going to take a part of the model to make, as the model was mainly my part of contribution to the group I was asked to divide up the work. I had told everyone the parts to start modeling but believed it would be a good idea to have a visual representation to e-mail to each member to help them.

















I was going to be doing the main (dark blue part) with Teresa and Kevin doing the wheel and front mechanism.

I took my part away and started modeling to get the ball rolling, as we were increasingly running out of time and needed to stop researching and make sure we were working on the model.

















I realized from looking at the images that we had collected from the museum that we did not have any directly side shots of the model. This meant that it would be hard to model as everything is at an angle, so I decided that I needed to draw a sketch of the model both for modeling but mianly for personal refrence.














The image above shows the sketch, that I came up with. It was nothing special but as mentioned was just needed for refrences and to model within max.












As we were giving a presentation to the class, I wanted to quickyl turn my sketch into a real image. So in the late hours of the night I made something for the presentation, once again It was not fantastic but this was to lull our competition (classmates) into beliving our model would not be that good and then blow them away with the finished product.
