Traditionally sculptors would use modeling plastcine for making small models or ‘maquettes’ before starting to carve in marble. Carving in stone requires great skill because, not surprisingly, once cut from the block, material cannot […]]]> https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/54080/peter-stevens-on-the-importance-of-clay-models/feed/ 0 How to: Clay model in Car Design https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4982/how-to-clay-model-in-car-design/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4982/how-to-clay-model-in-car-design/#respond Mon, 20 Sep 2010 14:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/how-to-clay-model-in-car-design/ In car Design schools there is a course of model making which is very important to complete our car design educational course. To be able to model with our hands our own design is the best thing we could do to learn about car design. In design studios there are several designers (not too many) […]]]> https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4982/how-to-clay-model-in-car-design/feed/ 0 The World of Clay Modelers https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4913/the-world-of-clay-modelers/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4913/the-world-of-clay-modelers/#respond Thu, 15 Oct 2009 17:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/the-world-of-clay-modelers/ Clay models are a miniature model made from industrial clay. They are a way to transform a sketch drawn by a car designer into a three-dimensional object so it can be studied and reviewed. The process of designing cars starts with over a hundred of sketches. As ideas are refined, those sketches are narrowed down […]]]> https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4913/the-world-of-clay-modelers/feed/ 0 Using Clay with CAD Applications https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4705/using-clay-with-cad-applications/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4705/using-clay-with-cad-applications/#respond Wed, 23 Feb 2005 10:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/using-clay-with-cad-applications/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4705/using-clay-with-cad-applications/feed/ 0 Industrial Design – A Practical Guide https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4519/industrial-design-a-practical-guide/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4519/industrial-design-a-practical-guide/#respond Mon, 07 Feb 2005 11:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/industrial-design-a-practical-guide/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4519/industrial-design-a-practical-guide/feed/ 0 Clay Pattern Styling and Rigid Surface Casting In Today’s Composite Industry https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4596/clay-pattern-styling-and-rigid-surface-casting-in-today-s-composite-industry/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4596/clay-pattern-styling-and-rigid-surface-casting-in-today-s-composite-industry/#respond Mon, 07 Feb 2005 10:00:00 +0000 http://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/clay-pattern-styling-and-rigid-surface-casting-in-today’s/ https://www.carbodydesign.com/pub/4596/clay-pattern-styling-and-rigid-surface-casting-in-today-s-composite-industry/feed/ 0
