[miled72]

In this Grasshopper exercise for beginners, you'll learn about many components and techniques that will help create many forms besides the one in the video. At the end of this tutorial, I will leave you with 2 small exercises that you can do on your own, basically minor adjustments to this exercise.

if literally anyone else out there is enough of a nerdy fucker to have instantly realized cave cricket piercers are almost definitely inspired by the painted grasshopper we have to be friends probably

End-of-day update

I managed to create this beauty today!

Three iterations in total, and no progress on the booklet yet, but I think I’ll try to another 20 minutes and wrap up to go home.

So many technical issues and one bad back later, but here I am with something that I can be proud of by the end of the day.

Tomorrow I’ll do some touch ups, try some iterations with other body parts, and 3D print!

Life is good.

An introduction to Revit and Rhino 3D software

Architectural work tends to include complex drawings and a variety of supporting documentation. If done manually, the task would require a lot of time, energy and resources. Hence, to improve their efficiency and learn new skills, most architects today pursue Advanced Revit Documentation Course and use cutting-edge software.  Such a program teaches architects to master advanced 3D modelling techniques in Revit. It provides architects with the skills and knowledge needed to take their design to a whole new level, while unlocking new opportunities and increasing their earning potential. The robust BIM capabilities of Revit not only enable architects to develop detailed 3D models but even facilitate data-rich designs. It also allows for better decision-making throughout the project life cycle.

Many architects also opt to pursue Grasshopper 3D tutorial Online, in order to learn how to link Grasshopper to Revit and model structural beams and construction planes, so as to create components that are able to adapt.

For architects desiring more creative freedom than the pre-defined commands and standardized elements can provide, opting to pursue a Rhino 3D Architecture Course would be a good idea. Rhino can be considered to be a “pure” 3D modeler. It tends to be largely focused on delivering the tools required to design geometric shapes. In Rhino 3D, there is no notion of architectural elements like stairs, floor buildups, or roof tiling. Rather, everything is based on three simple geometry types: curves, surfaces, volumes. However, Rhino 3D does come with a wide range of tools and features, like parametric modeling, free form geometries, as well as complex shape capabilities. Apart from architecture, this software is also used in the fields of engineering, fashion design, and product development.

Online tutorial programs for Revit and Rhino 3D can significantly help architects stuck on a project. They can also be of use to architecture students wanting to complete a complex assignment.

JourneyTober! Day 26 - Pillar

(Tiny spoiler warning for Black Myth Wukong)

            Since arriving at Mount Huaguo, the journey had continued at breakneck speed. Jen’s head was still reeling from the countless demons that confronted them on arrival. And all the changes their defeats had made of Monkey.

            First, a gilded rhino with a glowing horn adorned him in golden armor, extravagant and regal in its craft. Next, a flying deer of ice and poisoned blood left a pair of silk boots, the first shoes Jen had ever seen Monkey wear. Then a giant grasshopper that shook the earth with every bounce yielded a crown with two long, arching feathers perched its top. Last was a tiny mantis in a fight Jen did not witness but Bajie complained loudly about while it raged in his stomach. The bug’s defeat added a pair of ornate bracers, completing the armor in all its splendor.

            There was an authority to the ensemble, a power that Monkey effortlessly carried, like he was always meant to wear it. He looked every bit as royal and intimidating as the king he was sent to find. Jen couldn’t deny the enhanced appeal it gave his already handsome features but there was an apprehension to seeing him become so different so suddenly.

            While Bajie cheered and grinned proudly at every victory, Jen found herself more and more unsettled. A creeping dread grew in her chest with every piece added, with every part of Monkey slightly changed. It was like she was watching him slip away bit by bit until he wouldn’t be recognizable anymore. She still congratulated him when he looked her way, masking the anxiety behind a forced smile. If Monkey’s confused frown was anything to go by, he wasn’t buying her act.

            The trio had followed the path to the waterfall, a weaving labyrinth of open caverns and rocky alcoves at its base. There, glittering in the sunlight, was a towering pillar of iron and ornate gold, nearly as tall as the mountain itself.

            “Ah, here it is!” Bajie laughed, glancing up where the top pierced the sky above. “I knew it. Wukong is tightfisted, even Guanyin agrees so. He kept it here so it could be passed down to another one of his kind.”

            As if sensing Monkey’s approach, the pillar rumbled and slowly started to change, shrinking itself narrower and shorter until it was the size of an average fighting staff. Even in its smaller form, the pillar still radiated a power and weight that made Jen keep her distance.

            Bajie nodded, encouraging Monkey forward. “Now it’s time for you to try it, kid.”

            Slow and hesitant, his hand hovered the staff, carved words glowing under his careful touch. Gripping the iron firmly, he took a deep breath and pulled.

            The pillar resisted at first, refusing to budge in Monkey’s grasp. Around them, the very mountain began to thunder and quake. The ground shook underfoot, stones tumbled down from the rocky ledges, leaves and fruit rained down from trembling trees. Bajie struggled to stay upright while Jen dove for cover, tucked behind a fallen log as the power struggle continued.

            Finally, in a flash of golden sparks, the staff broke free. Monkey spun his newly acquired weapon, feeling the weight and balance in his confident hands. A final tremble rocked the cave and collapsed the far wall, revealing a hidden path deeper into the mountain.

            “Once you have this, there’s no turning back,” Bajie spoke with a mix of pride and resolve. “Now…you look exactly like Wukong.”

            The words sent a cold chill through Jen’s body. Properly armed and garbed with Sun Wukong’s fineries, there was no denying her monkey companion as the Destined One. For a moment, she did not recognize him, though, lost in the visage of the legendary Monkey King.

            Bajie’s praises continued, oblivious to Jen’s inner turmoil. “You’re all set, kid. You look like a fierce warrior!” The boar demon led the way through the collapsed wall, climbing his way up the pile of rubble. “Come with me! Let’s find out what that old monkey is up to.”

            As Bajie disappeared ahead, Monkey glanced around, noticing Jen’s figure still hidden behind the log. Before he could approach, she had scrambled to her feet, beelining in Bajie’s direction.

            “Are you okay?” Monkey asked, taking in her rushed stride and nervous behavior with concern.

            She only nodded, avoiding his probing stare. “I’m fine.” As she tried to hurry past him, a hand caught her arm, the grip careful but still firm in its halting intent.

            “Jen?” Monkey’s voice was questioning, chastising, and pleading all in one. The quiet desperation in it compelled Jen to reveal her worries if only to put him at ease.

            “It…looks good,” she said quietly, getting to see the armor up close. The gold designs were carefully crafted down to the tiniest detail; true artwork fit for a king. “You look very…different.”

            The meaning in her words seem to startle Monkey, his body still as realization set in. He sighed after a moment, a hand cradling her jaw and gentling tipping her face up towards his. The same dark eyes she’d come to love stared down at her, holding the same warmth and kindness in their depths.

            “It’s still me,” he assured her, thumb caressing her cheek. “That’s not going to change.”

            “Do you promise?” Jen whispered, gaze misting and throat suddenly choked with every fear she had swallowed. He leaned down, pressing his forehead against hers with a soothing hum. The tender touch was enough to overflow her closed eyes, gentle fingers brushing the falling tears away.

            “I promise; I will never leave you.”

            A shaky breath passed Jen’s lips as she leaned into him, the anxiety draining away to weary relief. Monkey pulled her in a hug, warm and comforting despite the bulky armor. Underneath it all, he was still her Monkey; her companion, her friend. The one she traveled with and the one she fell in love with. Now, she could only hope he would keep his word and stay that way till the end.

Sneak Peek of A Bug's Life OC (Rewrite) - Duchess Alicia and Flik heads to Ant Island

EXT. THE WOODS - NIGHT

After running through the woods for several hours, the trio stop at a bridge over a dry riverbed in front of a sign shaped like Princess Atta pointing to the right. The sign reads “TO ANT ISLAND. Where all your dreams and wishes will come true and work all day and all night.”

ALICIA

We’re almost at Ant Island.

FLIK

Star, we’ll need to be very discreet.

STAR

Discreet? Got it. Sounds like another plan. I’m getting pretty good at this planning stuff.

ALICIA

Um, you know what might help that plan? If you weren’t so bright?

STAR

Ohh, thank you. Oh wait, you meant—

ALICIA

Shiny, glowing, way too much light. Tone it down, will ya?

STAR

Oh, sure.

Star concentrates and the light from his body slowly fades until he looks like a regular white horse.

STAR

Better?

FLIK

Much better, thank you.

Before they could cross the bridge, they are stopped by a hooded figure riding a black horse. Star tries to pretend to be a normal horse by neighing.

STAR

Neiigghh.

The black horse neighs back and much more aggressively. The hooded figure stops in front of them and reveals herself to be Zing.

ZING

I knew you’d pass through here eventually.

FLIK

Zing?

Grasshoppers on horseback appear from behind the trees to surround Alicia and Flik on both sides.

ALICIA

(WHISPER) Star, remember the thing I just told you not to do? I’m going to need you to do it. Now.

Star becomes so bright that everyone around them has to recover from the sudden flash, giving the heroes enough time to jump from the bridge and run down the riverbed. Zing quickly recovers and orders the guards to chase after them.

ZING

Don’t let them get away!

Star jumps out of the dry riverbed and into the forest.

STAR

W-h-hoa! Look at me go! I had no idea horses could move this fast! I mean their eyesight is trippy but…

Star moves his eyes from the side of his head to the front.

STAR

Ah yeah, that’s better. I wonder if I could go even faster!

Star spontaneously grows four more legs, making him faster but also wobblier. Alicia’s pleas to be more careful go completely ignored as Star revels in his newfound burst of speed.

STAR

Why would humans ever walk on two legs? This is so much easie–

Star trips and falls and Alicia and Flik tumble over him.

FLIK

Ah! Get up! Run!

Alicia and Flik run for their lives as grasshoppers catch up with them. Star shapeshifts into a squirrel and runs towards Flik, hopping on and riding him.

STAR

Up we go!

Zing and the grasshoppers chase Alicia into a bunch of trees, where she manages to lose them. Zing then appears right in front of Alicia.

ZING

I got her!

Instead of stopping, Alicia slides right under her horse, making it stand up and throw the wasp. Zing glares at a runaway duchess and Alicia glares back as she keeps running.

Star and Flik jump over Alicia and try to reach Alicia. Star turns to look at Zing before changing his head to a horse’s head and neighing at her. Zing growls in frustration.

Star laughs at this before turning to see two of the grasshoppers closing in on Alicia.

STAR

Flik!

Star conjures an acorn shell and wears it like a helmet. Star jumps off of Valentino as the goat turns around and kicks him as hard as he can.

STAR

Get me to Alici-aaAA!

Star soars through the air, taking on a variety of forms, from a rhino to a chicken to a snowman until finally turning into a turtle. Star goes inside his shell and spins around, smacking the guards on their helmets. The guards stop to reorient themselves while Star flies towards Alicia.

STAR

Alicia! I’m coming for you!

Star lands on Alicia facefirst, making them tumble around for a few seconds until Alicia was awkwardly sitting on Star’s shell while Star tried to run away from the guards while still a turtle.

STAR

(GROANING) I really thought these would be faster.

Star turns back into a horse just as Flik catches up with them. Alicia grabs Flik and holds onto him as Star continues running. Alicia lets out a laugh, thinking they’re finally safe, only to see Zing and the guards gaining on them. She turns around to Star’s front only to see that they’re rapidly approaching a cliff.

ALICIA

Careful! The cliff!

STAR

Oh, yes! I love that idea!

FLIK

Wait, no! Bad idea! Terrible idea!

STAR

For real horses, but not for me!

Star leaps off the cliff with Alicia and Flik in tow. The two of them scream while Star yells in exhilaration.

STAR

Ya-hoo-hoo-hooey!

Alicia and Flik continue screaming as Star grows a pair of wings and wraps them around the two, cushioning their impact when Star hits the ocean below.

Once under the water, Alicia and Flik open their eyes to see Star in the middle of transforming. Right now, he is a swirling mist of glowing energy surrounding them. In spite of the tense situation they’re in, Alicia can’t help but feel calm and happy at that moment. She sees Star offer her his hand and she takes it. She looks at his smiling face within the sphere and could just tell that everything is going to be okay.

Back at the cliff, Zing and the grasshoppers stop just in time before falling over the edge. They look over and don’t see even a trace of our heroes.

GUARD #1

They’re gone!

Zing raises a hand to silence him. Still observing where they fell to see if anything would change. Sure enough, a golden glow shines from under the water and a shining dolphin leaps out with Alicia and Flik riding on top of it.

ALICIA

Woah!

Zing looks at the scene baffled while Star swims the heroes to safety. Alicia is smiling and laughing now that they’re safe.

Flik looks down and sees that Star is releasing more stardust into the ocean. He touches the water only for two real dolphins to appear beside and swim alongside them.

At the ocean floor, all kinds of sea life from fish to crabs become covered in stardust and swim up towards them. They also begin jumping out of the water. Alicia laughs and smiles at the whole scene.

She looks down and sees that all of the sea creatures are giving her her own show, taking on the formation of a fish as they swim underneath her.

She then hears a low, loud noise and turns to her right to see a whale appear right beside her. The whale shoots water out of his blowhole, soaking the trio more to their delight. Alicia looks directly into the whale’s eye.

The whale and all the other sea creatures dive back into the ocean. As its tail fully descends, Ant Island becomes visible in the distance. Alicia smiles at the sight, they finally made it!

In this third part of the Grasshopper series on attractors for beginners, we will learn about another component called Curve Closest Point, another alternative way to have attractor points affecting your shape. I recommend you also watch the first two videos in the series to have a better understanding about the attractors' logic, even though this video, by itself alone, presents a good explanation on its own. In the video description, you can find the links for the other two videos, also a link to download the demo file used in the second part that I used as a starting point for this tutorial.

Day 46

The Easter break had been peaceful. But it’s time to be back for more work!

I can feel the laziness setting in lol. Being in a comfy spot should not mean you should stop fighting.

I have the A2 presentation and submission for 3D modeling class on 2nd of May, and to be honest I am quite scared. I did not get a good score for A1, and I feel like I am behind on things..

On the other hand, I went out shopping with my sister today. She bought me this cute tin box of chocolate because I liked it. A gift for getting my research topic approved, she said.

Such a thoughtful little sis. Feel weirdly happy to be pampered by a baby sis as a grown woman, but I digress.🙂‍↕️

========================================

List of items for today:

- gather more research papers for my topic

- watch 5 videos for rhino-grasshopper

- research policy

=========================================

The chocolate in the tin box tasted so good. I have never had black choco with sea salt before, and was pleasantly surprised.

I might turn the box into something else later 🎲

I am weirdly into NewJeans’ music lately.

Use of Rhino 3D Modeling Tutorials

There can be circumstances where you come up with a great idea and concept about a project but do not have the right technical skills to complete it.  If your imagined design is too complicated you may have no choice but to simply give it up. This is why Rhino 3D tutor for Architects is important.Rhinoceros with Grasshopper is a robust 3D modeler meant for construction, fabrication, engineering and architecture. It helps enhance the ability of a team to effectively execute creative building form. Rhino is widely used for complex structures, versatile shapes, parametric facades,repetitive components, as well as free form roofs.

If you are unable to complete a project, you lose out on opportunities. The opportunity to get the client you want, to win architectural competitions, or to even to get a better job. There are many architects with great design ideas, but are not able to effectively present it as they do not have enough knowledge to make a project in 3D in one program. Spending days simply switching programs and trying out new workflows can be a huge hassle. Moreover, even after these efforts, the result can be fairly average. To avoid these circumstances, it is prudent to try out Rhino 3D Modeling Tutorials.

Rhinoceros 3D provides you with complete design freedom in the domain of parametric architecture, complex fluid form modeling, project presentation and conceptual design. Grasshopper for Rhino is among the most powerful tool that enables architects to create parametric designs with ease. It would allow you to explore parametric modeling without having to learn how to script, as well as make use of graphical programming interface for the purpose of creating your algorithms and parametric geometry. You can easily change the input parameters and watch your geometry changing shape in an instant.

Rhino for Architects Course would help you to explore the world of parametric design with Grasshopper, understand the logic behind it and how to implement it on your own architectural projects. Details of Rhino or Grasshopper 3D tutorial can be found online.
