Joined a 3d modeling competition this weekend for fun. Lets me test new techniques and keeps my modeling skills from atrophying too badly. The theme was “time piece” so made a short animation of a pocket watch. Afterwards, I of course had to see if I could make a pattern from it.

Astonishing…!

Thanks gents.
Lol. I will call this an artistic interpretation of the visible bits of the watch. Really ugly modeling but for a static animation or cnc patterns that is fine. If it was a game model or real animation it would have to be really cleaned up.
I try to speed model as much as I can for these competitions hence the ugly geometry. This model took me about 2-3 hours from start to finish.
