Thank you, Rob!
Well, I know the difference between icoceles and Sophocles, but I never heard of a Hoberman sphere! I guess a trip to the dictionary is in order.
The geometric forms were time-consuming. There were a lot of adjustments along the way. I'd say the only part that really drove me crazy was painting the models on the floor. Getting the perspective, the angles of the stands, the relative size and distance as they went back in space was pretty exhausting! Once all that was correct, then I addressed the problem of how to suggest the forms in paint without putting in too much detail, and how to reduce the amount of detail, lower the values, etc., as they went back in space.
P.S. Math was my worst subject. I wonder how many artists are really good at math.
