IN3D Week3 Lab1

Exercise 2
Use the same technique of revolving a curve to create an interesting vase.

Process

I drew out the left side of the curve using EP Curve Tool, instead of CV Curve Tool after trying out both. The initial curve looks very different, but with Control Vertex, I managed to manipulate the vertex to position it better. I also added in more points by adding Curve Point and Insert Knot, I get to be more precise.

I added in colours after completing, this is the final product.

Techniques

I learnt how to differentiate when to use EP Curve Tool and CV Curve Tool. For EP Curve Tool is for curves that are rounded, while CV Curve Tool is for straight or diagonal lines. I also learnt the importance to add in and manipulate vertex.

Reflection

Initially when I first saw the vase jpg, I was a little worried that I might not be able to model it out on my own without any pdf instruction file to follow. Upon completing the bucket, I realised that it is not that difficult afterall. Drawing curves takes a little more patience, as long as I'm determined to get it done, it'll get done.
