Do you use T-Splines for this? I’m curious about your process, as i’m trying to learn rhino myself.
you can contact me best via email. gantonski@gmail.com
thanks,

Hey Greg, I’m not familiar with T-Splines, for this I was just using vanilla Rhino, and actually it’s been a while since used it. I mostly just built this model out of NURBS solids and operations like lofts and sweeps, and some more machining-type operations like chamfer, etc. It’s by no means an elegant construction, just a bunch of intersecting independent solids. I made it during a 3d art class at school so I got most of my instruction through there, but I believe we were using a lot of the tutorial documentation from Rhino as lessons. I did use a V-Ray plugin to render this image, but the final result was actually 3d printed at the biochem lab printer.
