*535 - arch 459

You know how sometimes when you play too much of a menial game like tetris or bejeweled, the games get annoyingly fixed in your mind, and you end up playing virtual tetris/bejeweled in your head for days on end?

That's what happened to me, kinda sorta, except with Maya. (3D digital imaging program.) After the midterm project was done, I constantly dreamt (both in my sleep and fully consciously) of 3D modeling: nurbs, extruding, intersecting and snipping, scaling and rotating, control vertex and hulls and isoparms ... And now whenever I see a geometric structure, I immediately start modeling it in my head.

Guess what my project was about:







Hehe. Definitely couldn't have done it without a particular TA's help (: It was tremendously vexing, and I nearly cried over my project a number of times. I promise to start earlier on my final project, to save both of us undue stress and unnecessary 4 am nights. Haha.

So here's the final product! My favorite parts have got to be the little shiny lump at the tip of the beaters and the twisty wire. Hehe.

Electric beaters!
