Flashlight Quote

My idea for the flashlight project was to incorporate more curves than straight lines, I didn't have a set idea going into the project, I just wanted to play around with the shape using different tools before revolving it. As I was getting further into the project I realized it became more like a castle or chess piece, I ran with this.

Before revolving, I used the curve polyline tool to create the hour glass shape of the flashlight. Still, before revolving, I added circles to create the ribs on the side. After revolving I added solid sphere objects to cut out holes in the top of the sleeve, resembling a castle's top.

The materials I used were brushed metal, in red blue and silver. I chose these for a sleek look to the flashlight and a more industrial feel.
