I have a very love-hate relationship with the 3D modeling software we used for this class. When you’ve stared at it long enough, you start thinking about extrusions and filleting edges when you’re walking around the city, just looking at architecture. But when it works and you create a detailed 3D model from scratch, it’s an incredibly satisfying feeling. For my technical assignments, I modeled my Chapstick and a golden snitch from Harry Potter- here’s a few snapshots into my process of developing these models.

Golden Snitch (with some artistic license)
And here’s the finished project! Definitely a lot of work, but I learned a lot of new tools that I can use later on. And a personal Snitch model that I can 3D print at some point!
