Jake Lenzen and Charles Person: Pepakura

For this project, we wanted to create a simple, polygonal piece that was easily recognizable as a queen. We used renaissance era hats as inspiration, and create the head based on that shape. The base of the model is an octagon, signifying the 8 ways a queen can move across the chess board.

Modeling was done by starting with an octagonal polygon, then extruding it upwards and adjusting the faces until the desired shape was completed. Attaching the top piece to the rest was difficult, as the base was a square. In the end, we used the 4-point planar create tool to create the desired surface, then joining the  pieces together.

As with my lamp post, I forgot that I wouldn't be able to get the needed pictures of the modeling process without Rhino, so I only have a picture of the finished project. I apologize for this lack of forethought.
