welcome back to PJ Chen Design. in this video I want to show you how to create
one of this element as more like a twisting style and make them into a
flower pattern pendant. are you ready let's get started!
before we start I would like to remind you that PJ Chen Design now have a membership
program. it has extra videos for member only and member only community chair. if
you're interested don't forget to click on the join button. that's starting on
the right view, and we want to draw a profile more like an oval shape. so we
are going to starting with a zero and for whatever size that you would like to
make for this pendant. and I'm going to have something look like this and then
the second thing is we need to create a cross-section, so that's coming into the
top view and I like to creating a half round, so let's using the arc snapping
into here for whatever size that you want from on the top, and draw a straight
line linking those two. and let's join them together. if you feel like this is
too puffy and you can make them a little bit lower, but what I like to do is to
also to round the corner. I usually like to run a corner on a curve instead of
fillet on the solid if possible. I'm going to using the fillet corners and
this is the one I want to fillet, and something small 0.3mm
like this. let's make it taper by mirror to the other side. and this one let's do
the 3d scale starting from the center, holding the shift' and bring it
down like this. what we like to do is using the sweep one rail, we want to pick
up the rail cross section. make sure they are aligned
and we also want to close curve to be a solid form. now we have that we want to
make sure that it can be twists. so we want to use the twists command. pick up
the object. we want to snapping to the from the top to the bottom, and
coming to the front view, and I'd like to twist about 45 degrees over there. so
then you will have this choice if you feel like this twist is not enough. what
you can do is we're gonna do one more time from the top to the bottom. and
coming on to the front view and we want to twist 90 degree. let's take a look if
this is the twisting that you like. if you do you may want to move it back back
for -45 degree so you will look more in the center like this. I'm going
to move this up if you'd like to know how to do the prong set. I have few video
talking about the stone setting. you can find a playlist on the right top corner.
or I have a course for the stone setting explain all different kind of a setting
for you. so again I will have an information at a description below. if
you're interesting you can check that out. so once we have it we want to do the
polar array starting from the center. that's a zero and we want to polar array
six of them, and make sure we want to record a history, so then we will get the
shape like this. if this is two apart for you you can kind of bring it in because
we record a history. you can scale in to the size that you want it so that way
you will have this twisting looking shape on it. and then you can arrange the
bead setting on it. if you like it into the 2-tone with some stone setting on the
top. I hope you enjoy the video please leave a comment let me know how you like
it, and I will see you next!
