Assignment 1 – A Part of Oneself

When it came towards an object that we would see regularly. I came up without many thoughts or rather anything that would interest me. I then moved into wanting to create a dissection model of a lady bug or a scarab but I do not normally see those. I started to ponder longer and for more time, but when I looked around at my own room and found something that could fulfill the criteria I had. The Cubs truck was something that had a similar shape to the lady bug and was something that I have had for most of my life since my mother is pretty sentimental. I have kept it with me ever since, and I like it because It has been there and has never been lost.

When I modeled both the truck and the skeleton, I took models from Thingiverse as the basis for the final model itself. I am terrible at creating a skeletal structure so I made a simple more Cartoony one that was deformed, thickened, and altered from a regular skeleton that came in parts. With that I was able to reuse many parts by deforming them and resizing the bones. The truck was taken and I created the wheels and socket joints as well replacing simpler shapes to the detailed objects that were smaller.
