A test using primitives and some simple textures into making a watch. It's supposed to have a bit of an Art Noir feel to it.

Edit-The hands on the watch are post-production with a shadow added to look as if they're part of the model.

My overall goal of this is to learn how to shift from primitives to actually modeling this myself

If I were to try reproducing that, I would use a number of primitives, as well.

Nice!

I like it allot very nicly done;)

Looks great ( just make the chain smaller I think )
I'd go with a primitive too: I'd extrude/bevel a cylinder a few times to get the basic shape, then chamfer the edges to get the rounded edges. This way is very easy and efficient
For the hands, I'd make them in splines, extrude it 3 times, and collapse verts by couples to make a diamond shaped ...shape when you see it from the front. voila

I was thinking the same thing!

I'd use NURBS for a shape like that, start of with a sphere, squish it and edit the CV's, then trim out the face with a circle and add the watch face.

Of course MAX NURBS would be 'orrible...but anyway

Not as bad as truespace NURBS

[KillMeNow]

many ways this could be dont from lathing a a spline curve to nurbs to priamtives anwya nicely done =)
