Help with shape! It is urgent

Hello, I am having trouble for making this shape. It has two “layers”: one where the buttons are placed and other where the screen is placed. But It also connects the part from the middle to the sides. How can I resolve it? T



Hi!

I would try to model this using boolean operators. Starting from a cylindrical shape. You can model boxes and use these as cutouts for the screen/buttons. Then you can duplicate those cutouts and scale them down on the x- and y- axes.

This would be my initial approach, but obviously more ways are possible, also depending on what your purpose of the model is etc.

Hope this helps already a bit?

I see 4 objects to be modeled here. 1 main body with for screen and recesses for buttons and 3 buttons. This is not a challenging rhino model. Subds would be great solution for a fluid lip on the main face. Read up on subds in the manual…

Thank you!

This was very helpful! I think I will resolve it with your info.
