Ski Goggles - Keyshot with Perspective

These are the second pair of glasses that I made. The first were not well thought out and had a million naked edges due to bad modeling. I redid my idea to be more simplistic and more considerate of how I was going to actually model these in Rhino. To make these I first traced the inside glass with T-Spline curves on the front view. Next I offset this to get the outer face. I extruded and used some trimming to get the full frontal part. In order to get it to bend I experimented with a new command called "FlowAlongSrf" which allowed me to bend the face along any surface that I made. It's a very useful command that may help many people having trouble with the lenses of their glasses. Next I did a Sweep1 using a rounded rectangle and a T-Spline to make the strap. It's a simple, yet elegant design.
