Such a fan I have, for practice

Works in Progress
21

I love this and I love the convo on addons :slight_smile: I tend to agree, add ons should be used when it is needed, not “just because”. Of course I am a bit biased because I feel like so much about how to create is lost when it becomes so easy, it also tends to make people feel like they can cheat creatives on salary, but that’s a whole other topic.

To make the lights, I started with the bulbs of the light, took a while but I finally figured out how to make the halogen bulb I think , there is a reflective faceted inner shield , then a smooth outer glass skin that was tricky, (also I hid the bottom lens so you could see inside) , I still gotta make the little bulb still. but I am happy with that

Made a mistake and left a modifier on the body , that’s why it wasn’t smooth , fixed that and completed the bulb, now I just gotta make the brackets for it and then It can be attached to the fan.

Every now and again, I think I should pick something and just model it. What you are doing here is a clear cut, leading by example modelling entrepreneur; and it looks great!

One last thing , there are 2 kinda pendant type objects at the end of the chains to pull to turn on fan and lights , one sits lower then the other which the chains I modeled are already offset , so these are the last things to model
