Shapeways 3D Print

When making this, I went WAY out of my way to make sure that the mesh had zero problems. I’m glad to say that I have achieved that goal. I wish I made something more creative, but I think I was confused or unsure about what is possible to 3D print, and got it in…

Final Project

My final project consisted of a series of topologies that represent a clash between structured human development and the erosion of nature. Each piece is aprox. 10in squared and was created using CNC milling on renshape. To make these, I first started by creating a surface mesh in blender. I made these surfaces very repetitive…

The process behind mine was unnecessarily convoluted, but did open the way for more types of work. I started by creating a mesh in blender. I focused mostly on vertical features since this would be a CNC. I did try to keep the thickness of the material in mind to make sure the bevels would…

For my stacked slices project, I continued with the same head model I used for the flat fold. I was interested in seeing more of the organic features I sculpted and I thought the two would look interesting side-by-side. Assembling the head was actually pretty quick. Since I had three dowel rods shooting through the…

Assignment 3 – Max Kawula

I started with a really organic model and wanted to see the result of compressing that emotional state into a little over 100 vertices. It’s interesting to see what edges or shapes were preserved while the little details and wrinkles got ironed out. This was the result of the laser cut I made. Because of…

  During the quarantine, my Nintendo Wii saw a lot of usage. Despite it being more than 10 years old, I keep coming back to it so I can play my, even older, 20 year old n64 games on it. The Wii has a nice design, very minimal and low-profile, which gives it a look…
