Evolving from building structures with simple, textured cubes, we delved into the magical world of LEGOOOOOOOOOS! This assignment was broken up into two parts. For this part, we chose a unique LEGO piece that pertained to our eventual build of something from the world of Lord of the Rings (more about that later.)
Focusing on that, the goal was to create a piece that didn't already exist in our Student database of LEGOs. For my piece, I chose the LEGO expertly named the "Technic Pin Connector Plate with Two Holes." I know, a mouthful.
Using this image as a reference, I first built up a proxy model of what would eventually become my final version. A crude, but effective means of having something that was representative of a final product, but would serve adequately as a placeholder in a working project if needed
I then went to work on sorting out the geometry, cleaning up edges and adding bevels to soften the edges. Following the reference as best as I could, the end product was more or less an accurate representation of the unique LEGO piece I needed for Pt.2 of our assignment
Next up - BRING ON THE CATAPULT!
