Surface Modeling Project

For my surface modeling project, I decided to model a cupcake with a cherry on top. I wanted to create a simple cupcake for this project but I also wanted to use the bend tool in order to make the cherry. It was a simple project but the most challenging thing was making sure the dimensions were correct. I first began with making a wire frame with the CV tool for both the cup part of the cupcake and the part that somewhat hangs out. In this picture you can see the rendered objects, the cup and the muffin top part of the cupcake. It was pretty simple getting to this part of the project.

My next image shows the icing part of the cupcake put next and the cherry on top. I used the CV tool to draw the wire frame of the icing and then I also rendered it to make sure it was aesthetically pleasing looking. The cherry was a simple polygonal sphere which I then distorted and extruded part of the top in order to create a crevice. I also rendered this part of the cherry.

This last image shows the final product with a rendered view on the side because I also added a spotlight because I thought that would look nice also. I am pretty happy with the final product, especially the stem of the cherry. To create the curve of the stem I used the bend tool which was pretty easy to use. Overall, it was a simple project, but slightly tedious.
