Hi everyone,

first, edit Your picture or edit post and please decrease the resolution because it is to BIG!!!

second - turn off rendering and specialy room environmnet. It disturbs instead of helping to investigate Your model.

three - attach picture with curves network to have a clue of taken approach. But, this time, please, make it smaller

First of all...Welcome to mcad!


Nice model, but...in your rendered pic, it looked kind of funny at the corners. Specially the "corner above the curved front surface..:" (it seems to be some kind of radious there??) Doesn
 
Hi everyone,


Thanks for those who replied,


Thank you Sanjeevkar1 for the applause.


Thank you Jacek, I hope by now you got a better view of the model.


Thank you Tobias for the valuablecomments, I will take them into consideration in future models.


Further participations are appreciated.


Regards,
 
Hi Hazem

First, I personlay like challanges based on existing products, thus Yours is hard to judge cause there is no origin to compare with.

Until we consider the model itself in general, I assume You used Boundary Blend tool or Variable Section Sweep to build Top surface.

Unfortunately in real devices You won`t find such comfortable situation as no spliting line at side walls. Ussualy mouse is devided in to 2 parts splited on left and right side, thus drafts has to be maintained there - I suppose James would highlighted it in more details.

Anyway, please find real mouse and try to build it. Then we - all - are up to follow Your post to see the progress, fails nad solutions.

keep going
