Thinking About Clock Designs

Based on James' last post, I've decided not to stress about the base of the tower. I did a little bit of new modeling, concentrating on the actual clock part of the clock tower, then decided that I needed to go back to the drawing board. Literally.

So instead of pushing around polys and CV curves, I spent the better part of the night surfing the web's best watch porn site, The Watchismo Times and making sketches for the clock face. I've got some drawings that I like. I'll turn them into Illustrator art tomorrow and pick one or two to move forward on modeling. The clock face is, in some ways, the focal point of the clocktower. As such, it should look damn cool.

The images over on Watchismo are so freakin' good, if I make something even 60% as good, we're gonna be stoked.

Cheers.
