Michael Prestidge Midterm: Flashlight

When creating my flashlight, I decided to play around with the template in Rhino and see what happened. I originally didn't want to base my flashlight off of anything specific, so I just added some basic shapes and elements and saw what the sleeves looked like after revolving. I created a few different sleeves and ultimately decided to go with this slightly lightsaber-ish sleeve.
For this design, I kept it simple by using rectangle additions at the top and bottom, a diagonal line cut towards the top, an array of circles below that, and finally a curve in the middle. After revolving I added pipes on the bottom of the handle to add to the empty space the handle had. After the pipes were added, I felt that adding anything more to the sleeve would just make it a bit too cluttered. After this, I was ready to layer the model for KeyShot and get some renders.
