Hello :)
I just completed my Easter project: I decided to create an iconic design object from our kitchens in France: the Duralex glass!
In France, we've known these glasses since childhood, and we used to enjoy looking at the number written inside the bottom of the glass during our meals in the cafeteria, which gave us a fictitious, temporary age.
You should also know that these glasses are almost unbreakable!
I reproduced the high rim of the glass with a slight overhang, as well as the small circular grooves characteristic of the design of these glasses (towards the middle and bottom of the glass ; the special feature is that the glass becomes a little bit thinner/smaller after each circle (it ends up looking like a small staircase...). I also created the small hollow with a slight central overhang below the glass. (I didn't have time to reproduce the famous number so as not to exceed the allotted time.)
It took me 55 minutes to create and light it. A few more minutes to render, but it was no longer me who was in charge, but Cycles :)
Happy Easter to all of you.
