#Homersepics #Contests I wanted to create an iconic figure from the Odyssey and Homer's epics while also making it functional, which is why I chose to make a Trojan Horse Shelf. It was also a project that matched my design skills and gave me the opportunity to challenge myself. I started out with a sketch layout of the trojan horse to decide how I want it to look, then I switched to Onshape to design the model. My original idea was to create a 4 quadrant shelf in the body, but I realized they would be too small to be practical. Instead I kept the 4 quadrant design as a structural detail towards the back of the horse while opening one larger shelf to provide more storage. After finishing designing the model, I imported it into Bambu Studio to optimize the print settings to save time while maintaining good product quality. Once the print finished and I was satisfied, I created a render in Fusion 360 and then took photos of the finished model with some of the small items I use every day. I'm really happy with how the project turned out, as it captures the iconic trojan horse look while also being a practical shelf for displaying small items!! Good luck to everyone in the contest :)
