Modeling a Joystick
Learning Objectives
This tutorial introduces you to modeling. You will learn how to:
■ Create curves using CVs and edit points
■ Use curves to create different types of surfaces (skinned, revolved, extruded, and planar)
■ View a model in hardware shaded mode
■ Edit CVs
Introduction
In this tutorial, you will model a computer joystick like the one below. You will
be introduced to tools that enable you to build surfaces from curves. As well,
you will start to use layers to organize your work. Finally, you will learn a way
to view and evaluate your work.
