Ring
Brainstorming
At the begining I had two ideas for the basic ring design. One with a large top and one that was the same width all around.
Choosing the Best One
I eventually decided to on the ring with the wider top because I believed that it would give a larger surface to work with and to add details to the ring and make it more unique.
Developing the Idea
Testing and Evaluting
I used the flowalongsrf command to get the ring to have a circular shape while allowing me to use a flat surface beforehand to add details to it. I added a series of diamonds and an elevated center eventually and then used the flowalongsrf command to create the ring. I then created some gemstones and place them in the middle of the elevated center of the ring. I used the flowalongsrf tool several times to see what the result would be to the bending of the diamonds so that I could eventually get the look I wanted. I also made a simple ring box design to hold the ring.
Prototypes
Reflection And Improvements for the Future
I was satisfied with the outcome of this project and the way the ring looked in the end. In the future I hope to learn how to use more curves to make different shaped objects than I am used to. Learning how to create different angled curves easier will help me in the future to create some really original ideas. I overall need to learn how to use more commands because the ones I know now are very basic.
