The final 3D model

THE DRAGONOV
 This is the gun put together but not rendered to make it look fully 3 dimensional.
After tracing the 2D image of this gun each section (barrel, stock, magazine, receiver, trigger, etc) was created into 3D objects separately.

Creating each part 3 dimensional was the hardest part, after that putting them together was easy.

 This is the final gun put together and rendered to look like the real deal.
The angle of this picture was to get the visual of how each part (magazine, trigger guard, stock holes, etc) are different depths and sizes, creating a more realistic gun.

This picture has the "light" command helping the shadows come in from a different angle instead of the entire object being a bright grey.
This is the front view of the gun showing the size of every section and also the small iron sight on the barrel of the gun.
Also from this view you can see the barrel and how there is a muzzle (the hole in the barrel for the bullet) which is to scale.

Rhino 4.0 V-Block


This is the V-Block made in Rhino 4.0 in the wire frame view and in full 3D.
The commands were mainly from Auto-CAD but the extrude command is new. It pulls a flat surface and creates a 3D object.

Rhine 4.0 Screw Driver

 This is the screw driver made 3D from the top view.
 This is the screw driver from the full perspective view
This is a picture of all the views of a screw driver being made into 3D but before that they are in this wire frame that allows you to change everything on the outside as well as inside the object.

Rhino Proposal

In the program Rhinoceros 4.0 i will be creating, as my final project, a WWII M1A1 Thompson Sub-Machine Gun.
This gun was originally an idea from personal likes but also the challenge in creating something 3D that no one else has attempted found my curiosity.
This picture was the only one that could be imported into the Adobe and Rhino programs to be traced in order to separate each part.
No scaling was found unless separate purchases of gun manuals were obtained so the scaling of the final gun is only from the picture found on Google images.


This is the 3D modeling program Rhinoceros in its 4 perspective layout.

Inside each screen is my creation of the M1A1 Thompson sub-machine gun in parts ready to be put together.

Rhino basic shapes


These are basic shapes from the 3D modeling program Rhinoceros 4.0
Each shape was created from a designated command and not of skill or combined maneuvers, but none the less it is a start to learn this program.

Online construction game


This is a cargo bridge representing the structural designs that can hold a certain amount of weight.
This design is simple yet it worked to hold up 2 working men and their elephant.

Notes on perspectives

Single point perspective





Perspective drawing is a good style to use when drawing in 3D. There are different styles including single point and two point perspective. The basic example below shows how to construct a simple single point perspective drawing of a cube. Using the same skills more complex drawings/designs can be drawn, after a little practice.

Two point perspective

Perspective is a realistic way of drawing objects in 3D. We have already looked at single point perspective, two point perspective using two vanishing points and when an object is drawn in this way it is even more realistic than if it were to be drawn with a single vanishing point.

Journals

Week 1

Day 1 - introduced to the course again

Day 2 - We started working with AutoCAD again with just a 3D object drawing each side

Day 3 - We continued to draw the three sides of a 3D object and published it to our blog

Day 4 - We were given a 3D bolt to make in AutoCAD

Day 5 - Started our house in google SketchUp

Week 2

Day 1 - SICK

Day 2 - Worked on my house and took screen shots of each side.

Day 3 - Re-designed the first auto-CAD thing we did and uploaded a new version on my blog and created a new figure 1.7 which also is on the blog.

Day 4 - Today we started a new figure in Auto-CAD which was completed and uploaded onto the blog.

Day 5 - Today we did figure 2.9 using Auto-CAD, this took some teamwork and cooperation in order to fulfil the expectations of our knowledgeable teacher.

Week 3

Day 1 - Family Day

Day 2 - Today we finished figure 2.9 and helped David catch up on some work

Day 3 - SICK

Day 4 - Today we posted figure 2.9 onto the blog and made a new design from the tutorial on using the drop down commands.

Day 5 - We started figure 3.3a using Auto-CAD

Week 4

Day 1 - We learned presentation drawings and took notes for different perspectives.

Day 2 - Today we continued figure 3.3a but got stuck when we needed to make a circle from a metric measurement.

Day 3 - Today we worked on a quiz online and blogged it

Day 4 - Today we did a quiz that we downloaded into a .DocX file that we highlighted the answers on and emailed via firstclass to Mr.D

Day 5 - Today we began figure 2.7 and learned the Array command


Week 5
MARCH BREAK

Week 6


Day 1 - Today we continued 2.7 and learned the Pline command

Day 2 - Today we started sketching drawings by hand

Day 3 - Today we started a quiz type thing to test are sketching ability

Day 4 - We started figure 2.4 on autocad using commands we already know

Day 5 - Continued working on autocad drawing 2.4

Week 7 

Day 1 - Helped David and Donald draw their competition drawings for autocad

Day 2 - SICK

Day 3 - Watched a movie in class on the computer

Day 4 - SICk

Day 5 - Listened to Mr.D explain some more things about perspectives and technical drawings

Week 8

Day 2 - SICK

Day 3 - SICK

Day 4 - Today i came back to start a logo done in photoshop about some kind of design related company including our name in it.

Day 3 - suspended

Day 4 - SICK

Day 5 - PA DAY

Week 10

Day 1 - I began catching up on the group project that i am behind on

Day 2 - Today we did a tutorial for Rhino to make basic shapes

Final Week of School

Day 1-5 - We spent the entire week on Rhino finishing our 3D models. I have created a Dragunov (NO SCOPE) within that time using many commands and help from the other grade 12's. After completing the model i angled the light source so that i could render the image and post a well taken picture showing every side and detail of the gun.
