Our first major assignment for our 3d modeling class was to model a medical instrument. I chose the trocar which is:
A sharply pointed shaft, usually with a three-sided point. A trocar may be used within a cannula, a hollow tube, designed to be inserted into a vein, artery, bone marrow or body cavity. The word trocar is derived from the French “trois” (three) + “carre” (side).
The trocar I used is actually bladeless. This was done in 3ds max. Solving how to model the instrument was probably the hardest part. I restarted several times. One label had been tricky however. We were also graded on texture and lighting.
