Como la Flor (Like the Flower)
Inspiration and Influences
The inspiration behind this floral flashlight cover was Selena Quintanilla's song "Como la Flor". I chose this concept to honor Hispanic Heritage Month and to honor Selena. I had the idea of a simple lily for a more tangible concept, and the color palette I chose was inspired by the Autumn season which tends to be associated with warm colors like orange, yellow, and red.
Techniques and Material Choices
Some of the techniques I utilized were the polar arrays, the boolean difference command, poly-surface extrusion, and the join command. As for material choices, I used multiple materials for particular pieces of the model: the center of the flower was jewelry with yellow hue; the big petals were flaky tangelo with a magic texture and a burnt orange hue; the smaller petals were of soap bubbles; the base was of polished walnut; the stem was of galvanized steel with a glossy texture; the cap (upside down petals) are of flaky tangelo with a magic texture.
