I'm gonna confess something. This project snuck up on me. It was Fall Break/Thanksgiving Week, I had a couple other assignments in the pipeline for another class, and my Rhino Evaluation License expired. Yay. Fortunately for me, my Rhino app glitched, and I was able to use the program without a License.

If you ask an artist what they consider the hardest body part to draw, most likely they will answer with one word: Hands. This, as I quickly found out, is doubly true for 3D modeling. Rhino 7 is an inflexible beast on a good day, so I decided to go in a more feasible direction.
My inspiration: A magnet made in the image of C-3PO's severed arm from A New Hope.
I had already chosen the robot C-3PO as my inspiration, but with Rhino's severe at best limitations, I had to abandon my original plan for a faithful recreation of the famous Droid's arm. So, I decided to do a sort of "crappy cosplay" version, using Rhino's toolset the best I could.

Is it accurate? No. Could you print it out and wear it? Maybe. At least it's finished.
That's All, Folks!
