Think and Plan

In order to fulfill the requirement of Phase 1 Exhibition Design, we have to come out one layout plan, facade elevation and also the side elevation. Since I'm using part of the Diamond as my design metaphor, so i have to deal with the shape of the diamond which is quite hard for me to imagine how it looks like for front and side view. After trying several times on technical drawing of my design, even with some references from internet, i failed to draw exactly to what it should looks like in my mind. So, I start to work in other ways. I try to model the diamond out using some cardboard, and then follow the shape and outline. This help me a lot faster on technical drawing. But then..."Why don't I use the Maya software?" I can easily get the 3 sides view done by just doing a simple diamond model in Maya...how silly...well...just a reminder...think and plan well before you work! haha
