If any of you are finding that you're short on time, or if you want to try something different, I'd suggest making some rendered sectional perspectives like the one I made above. They're super easy and can articulate your design more quickly than a standard section. The section cuts are true so this is still an accurate drawing.
1. Make a clipping of your model in Rhino and place it where you want to make your cut.
2. Set up your lighting to showcase the interior.
3. Click the little red car icon and choose the correct view.
4. Deselect everything (click background), and then in properties, change projection from 'Parallel' to 'Perspective'.
5. Then adjust the 'lens length' (analogous with conventional lens focal lengths in mm) to adjust the apparent 'depth' of the perspective.
6. Change the viewport to 'rendered'
7. You can now print it to an image, keep in mind Rhino unfortunately only allows scaling of images when set to the top view so you'll have to reference a measurement and scale it in InDesign.
8. To poché your walls you can either do it by hand on trace and scan it, do it in AutoCAD or in a last minute effort do it in photoshop.
Thanks for sharing this with everyone - including the Non-Section-Two students...
ReplyDeleteJust keep in mind that ORTHOGRAPHIC DRAWINGS need to have line weights, follow drawing convention, and CANNOT be simply renders from your 3D model. Now that this is in writing and online, ideally others will see it and not fall prey to such acts of laziness, stupidity, or arrogance. You will see weak or desperate students do this for their final projects however...
