Computer Aided Design

The first week's assignment was to model the final project.

I would like to make a walking plant object.
Before the sketches, I would like to show this prposal that I submitted when I was undergrad back in 2006.(Fig.1) I remembered that I gained first prize, but had no skill to make it. In fact, people tend to have this idea to make plants move. Fig.2 shows a SF movie having alien trees attacking earth.
Even in the prior years of this same class, there was attempts (he changed his final project) sharing this concept.

I had four sketches for this project. I decided to use as much types of CAD software to model each of them.

I used Rhino and Grasshopper for the first one. I have been using Rhinoceros for a long time.

Then I moved to Antimony. It was easy and handy for me because of the base experience in Grasshopper. I also liked it using python, since Grasshopper can handle python code too.

I tried to use game engine Unity but it wasn't a modeling software afterall. I wanted to try Solid Works, but didn't have time.
