Interesting 3D object

issss my little glitter green house.  🙂

We went through this object and other 3D objects as part of last week’s 3D lesson. Here’s my 2D Sketch Analysis.

Now when looking at 3D objects, I will try and notice the 3 important things i learn about the details in a 3D object:

1) Dominant (the colour/part of the object that occupies the most)

2) Sub-dominant (the contrast of Dominant, bringing out the quality of Dominant)

3) Sub-ordinate (finishing touch = e.g the brand name/special point)

But when it comes to my object, we also have another learning point which is the term called “Cluster of similar volumes”. Because we see that even on their different sides, they each share similar volumes. (However i’m not quite sure if the dominant and sub-dominant rule still apply to this) I learn that there is a void here too – in the space where the small circle is and outside the circle itself that’s within the triangle (see SIDE picture). The little circle inside could also be the sub-ordinate (SO) as it is the only special looking thing that looks different from all the parts that has angles.

On another note, I initially wanted to bring a different 3D object for the lesson for analysis as it looks simple but the inside of it is not? It intrigues me haha i shall show it here. (pictures of it seen below)

From top to bottom: 1) front view 2) top view 3) bottom view

It’s a glass-like material, transparent and  a small rectagular cuboid. BUT what i realised was that, it wasn’t just a normal cuboid but the magical ‘pegasus’ feature inside was also built in as a 3D thing. It doesn’t appear flat and it has various dimensions represented, hence having this structure of a pegasus. I would insert a video in here to better show how it looks like but i tried and was still unable to post the vid despite the fact that it has a lower mb so i guess i will bring it on the next lesson to explore more about it. I’m guessing the same “rule of thirds” applies to this too.  🙂

(also i will be putting up my 2D sketch analysis for the box-making session we had to do after this post heh)

  1. Good effort with the 2D Sketch Analysis. 🙂 Do make the line of symmetry ( principle axis) more obvious in the sketches. Perhaps in a different colour?

    The horse hologram looks interesting too… Need to have a closer look to see if the rule of thirds apply here.
