Ceci Michelena: Week 4 Detergent Bottle

^^ (Updated naked edges image) ^^






For this model I created a design around the "S" curve. The front surface is a clear hard plastic and you can see the liquid inside. The liquid was created by making an offset surface after the whole outer surface of the model was completed. For the handles, the hard edge was fixed by doing the pipe, trim, blend steps. The light blue materials are a soft plastic so that it reflects less light than the rest of the bottle, and the top is made of a hard clear plastic so that the details of the twist open top could be visible in the final design.

To fix the 2 naked edges:
The naked edge on the top was fixed by deleting the bottom surface of the cap, making a unified curve out of the edge of the bottle, lofting the two, and joining everything.
The naked edge around the S curve on the offset surface outside the liquid was fixed by blending the surface with the inner edge of the offset surface and the rest of the body of the  bottle (and then joined).
