Faith Romero: Week 15 Skateboard 2

 

Design Intent 

    For my design I wasn't sure on what I wanted the design to look like, I maybe created five different versions till I found a design I would like to replicate. I decided to go with a trendy look that I found on Pinterest. 

Modeling Techniques 

    I copied the skateboard base I made for my previous design, and began modeling on top of the reference. I placed my reference photos and created point curves to make a asymmetrical circle. I created a surface and trimmed the excess to make a shallow engraving. Since this was the biggest element I decided to make it the only shallow element. I began working on the medium layer. I replicated the frame, leaves, and dot circle. I stretched the new drawings to fit the board. I thought the board had too much blank space so I added the spiral circle. Finally I created another surface and trimmed the excess. 

Rendering and Materials

    While rendering I wanted to simulate what the board would look like after the engraving, I went with a base wood type for the board, a slightly darker wood for the shallow lines, and a dark wood for the medium lines.
