Greetings to all. Recently I was lucky enough to take part in a project that is connected with a new direction for me - work with polymers and resins, namely carbon and plastic. The goal was to make a futuristic scabbard, handle and stand for a souvenir katana.
A plan was developed for dividing into parts - shell and filling.
The filling is made of ABS plastic.
After that, we were able to analyze how the parts are assembled and make some changes.
At the same time, a stand was developed. We made it from photopolymer resin, painted it and covered it with leather. The visible parts were pebbled (displacement - ExtractRenderMesh).
