As the construction of the model advances,
i need to begin work on some of the finer details
like trash cans, window frames, signs, etc.
In this post i'll show you how the SSE logo was reconstructed from scratch.
The technique i came up with looks a bit exotic at first, but it works like a charm.
This 'segmentation' trick is used in drawing letters on paper,
so, why shouldn't it work for drawing 3D typo, too?
1. First i made some reference linework so it mimics the original shape
2. After adding splines in the rough shape of the letters
it's time to adjust their appearance and to soften the corners
3. Afterwards the small logo gets some more attention
until i'm happy with the results.
The logo and lettering are done, there's some more work needed on the background plate,
but that will happen at a later point in the building process.
For now, i can continue with adding other details around the building.
And here's a short slideshow of the progress seen above
