Jose Diaz - Mouse


    

My mouse employs an alien theme. The body is green to mimic basic alien skin. The eyes glow red for a more menacing feel. And the scroll wheel can also double as a device with mind reading powers.

The body of the mouse started out as a cylinder with an ellipsoid stacked on top. They were then merged together into one shape and scaled in 2-D to give it an oval shape. The bend tool was used next to give it a curve and a Boolean difference was used to give it its concavity. The eyes were created with the point curve tool and then extruded just enough to clear the surface of the mouse for buttons. Filleting the edges on the buttons made them look more polished. Finally the scroll wheel is a simple torus aligned in the middle.

For materials the entire mouse is made of plastic with the exception of the scroll wheel. However the buttons are of a clear plastic that is lit up from underneath so they look angry.
