This mouse drew elements from iron kite shields of medieval times, as well as flint arrowheads. The result is the moniker "Arrowshield." I was going for a more angular design, while retaining some roundness for comfort.
To get the general shape, I used 5 curves(roughly the shape of half a kite shield) and lofted them together. After that was done, I copied the base shape and scaled it down, and connected that for a tapered base. The left and right mouse buttons are extruded curves that were chamfered on the front two faces. The middle mouse wheel is a filleted cylinder with another cylinder around it for a rubber grip. The wire is just a tube and a cylinder.
The main body of the mouse is a rough, black plastic. The right and left mouse buttons are a more reflective hard red plastic, and the middle wheel and base of the cord are rough orange plastic. The cable and the wheel grip are a black rubber.
