If you start with that circle and the line, the shape is readily scalable. I drew the 45° line as a guide and I added the full circle as an illustration of the geometry. I used absolute positioning to place these objects. I added the 1″ by 1″ rectangle on the left. I’m working in the front view and on the Layer Plane. In Vectorworks, I started with the 1′ by 2 5/8″ rectangle on the right. It is always amazing how objects in nature are so close to the Golden Proportion. We could use a full egg, but the model would be a mess.Īn Egg has a nominal proportion of 2:2.625. We only need one side of the egg to make it 3D. To model an egg, we’ll use a simple Sweep command. It is close enough to a circle in plan view that we won’t model with Revolve with Rail. Yes they are all different and an egg is not an oval, even if they have the derivation. The first question is “What is the shape of an egg?” It is not an oval, ellipse, or a circle. Well, Easter Eggs can be fun, and decorated to the hilt. Whats a set designer to do to celebrate the Spring Mating Ritual? What will the lighting design look like for the same? These are the questions that we ponder as the weather turns warm, even if warmer than usual and foggy as we write this.
