Clay Modeling

Orthographic

Orthographic

This is crucial for accurate dimensions and measurements of the model to the original design concept.

Technical Development

The orthographic is not only important for the clay model but also for the digital model.

Building the Model

Building the model is complex proccess that involves time and precision. The model is built on a foam base and the clay is densely packed and smoothed to create the surface of the model.
