DETAILS

Here I am showing the details of my mosque. These are the Sketchup versions, and the physical 3D version of each one, which then I have used to create my final model later on

I used a long piece of a cylinder wood stick and one end was sharpened to achieve the pointy look of the minaret. I then spray painted it in white so that it resembled my Sketchup version. I have also inserted two rings to make it more accurate to the Sketchup design, and they were also spray painted white m

The dome I have 3D printed. This gave it a neater look and it picked on the details really well.

The Islamic patterns were the most complicated feature for this design. To achieve this, this pattern was scored onto clear acrylic, which was done using 2D design. I am satisfied with the outcome and it shows the details very well.

To follow through my theme of tessellation and repeated patterns, I created this open roof and used hexagons to make my patterns. These have holes in the middle, which lets natural light come through I put this design on 2D design and made the smaller hexagons hollow, so that the laser cut would cut them. I first laser cut a base and then individual strips to place on top so that it had more dimension and texture to it.
