Tim Hardin: Week 5 Sunglasses







These "POM: Fruity Eyewear" sunglasses are based off of Nathan Becks sketches. He intended for them to resemble a fruit that has just been picked from a tree. I used his idea and created an apple themed version.

To create the frames I drew the circle curves first and then offset them to have the circle part to fit the lenses. Then I drew all of the other curves, extruded them accordingly, and then booleaned them together. To create the lenses I booleaned out a pipe in the middle for the lenses to sit in and then slightly extruded and inserted the lens'.

 To get the fruity/apple look in keyshot, I used a very light green soft/shiny plastic to resemble a fresh apple. Since red is another color associated with apples, I tinted the glass lenses a dark red which stands out nicely from the green.
