Colgate Ornament

Objectives

  • Create a professional looking ornament of the Colgate University logo as a gift for my sister, a Colgate student

Process

  • Vector designed in Inkscape, based off of raster reference
  • Extruded (added depth) in Rhino
  • CNC-routed out of 3mm plywood
  • Sanded, then airbrushed and hand painted
  • Sealed with a matte varnish

Reflection

  • Looks good, but more sanding would have improved the finish
