I made SD smaller so that it can be smaller than D. The diameter of SO is 1/3 the diameter of SD, X.
Angle 2
SD was bigger than the D’s diameter, hence I made D bigger which is diameter Y and SD’s diameter shorter such that it is 2/3 of Y.

The cone is placed at 1/3 of D’s height, Z and Ms Cheryl suggested that the cone should be placed at the side of the cylinder instead. If the tip of the cone is placed directly at the bottom of the cylinder, the cone will lose it’s sharpness and will make the model less interesting.

This model was not good at all as the 3 shapes were too similar in size, hence I made the D extremely huge, indicated as diameter X, and made SD 2/3 of X. I shortened SO, such that it is 2/3 the height of SD, Y.

Shifting D up such that the center is 1/3 of the height of SD, indicated as B.

The SO is already 1/3 of D’s diameter Y, but in order to differentiate it even better from the SD, I had to make SO much smaller, like a marble size.

The position of SD is placed at 1/3 of the height of D, X. The SD was too long hence I shortened it such that it is approximately 2/3 of the height of the cone.
I will be working more on this model as in has a more interesting shape as well as less things to modify. Ms Cheryl suggested to change the arrangement of the model as shown in bottom right of the sketch analysis.
For the 1st 3D lesson the class was told to bring an object that was interesting to them. I brought a set of house keys with a key chain attached to it, but I realised that they weren’t as good as an example to explain the Dominant (D), Sub dominant (SD) and Subordinate (SO).
The dominant, would be the whole key, the sub dominant would be the white area while the subordinate would be the image of the koala bear. The whole object was almost of the same colour, sliver, and the entire surface is shiny, which causes the difference among the 3 groups to be not as obvious. If the D was much more bigger and the SO was much smaller with a different colour, it would have made it a better example for the exercise.
So I tried to find another example at my hostel, it is not a perfect and best example but it would be better than the keys. which is a red swiss knife.
The D is the sliver portion as it covers the most area for the swiss knife, while the SD is the red portion as it smaller than the metallic part, and the SO is the golden O symbol. The swiss knife has more colours to differentiate the 3 groups as compared to the keys. However, it would much better if the D is much more bigger compared to the SD while the SO should be smaller.

The SO had the same thickness as the SD and the height was too tall. Hence, I cut down on the height such that it is 1/3 of the breadth of the SD annotated with a X and made the SO extremely thin.
Side view
The SD is too long and is too similar to the height of D. Hence, I shorten the SD and lengthen D such that SD is 1/3 of D as annotated with L.

The length of SD is too long as compared to the breadth of D, hence I shorten SD and made D wider in order to achieve a 2:3 ratio for SD’s length and D’s breadth. In addition, I wanted to make changes to the model and wedge the SO to the SD as indicated in the diagram.
Side view
SO is too long and thick as compared to SD, hence I removed a huge area of the SO. I tried to make SO as thin as possible so that it is 1/3 to the breadth of SD annotated as A. The breadth of D is similar to A as well, thus I decided to extend it. As for additional changes, I wanted to pierce SO through D which is why there was an extension to the left of D

SD too short as compared to D and SO is too long. After the SD extends down more, the SO will shift down such that the placement is 1/3 of the SD. In addition, the SO will be adjusted such that it will pierce through the SD
Top view
SD was shortened as its length is the same as the width of D, hence it was reduced such that SD’s length is 2/3 of the width of D indicated as x.
Overall I prefer Model #3 as compared to the other 2 as it will be much easier to work on *cough cough* and it gives a more interesting figure. I will be working more on this as the final model for submission.
