Sometimes I just feel a little strange, why do I feel that the draft is better than the final?  Initial: N, Z Anyway here is my Finial in Rendered and Shaded mode:  And the process: (It's so hard to choose one idea from those drafts.)  (The second logo in the first row really caught my eye, prahaps I should choose this one as my finial？） And the part about how the logo look like in 3D model: (I forgot how to fit the "Hatch" surface onto the 3D model, so I just choose use "Polyline" to recreate the closed lines, turn the lins into a 3D model logo, move the 3D model logo to the right position,  hen use "Boolean Split" to create a nice "surface," and finial, delete the original 3D model logo.)

My initials are "NZ," "nz," and thosr two letters can be regarded as the same pattern, and the rotation angle is different, so in some aspects, it's a bit difficult to think of the design. I choose #8, #19, #25. Because I think the design of a logo should be simple and unique so that people can remember it immediately, and these sketches meet the requirement.

 Hello :) For this "castle," I decided to go with a slightly "easier" approach, almost no circles or curves. Honestly, I really think building with circles and curves is way harder than just sticking to cubes and rectangular prisms. Curves will give you more creative freedom, but anyway, putting together a castle with clean, straight rectangular prisms feels sooo satisfying, that every piece is neatly controlled. I mainly used " Box ," " BooleanDifference ," " Polyline ," " Mirror ," and " Rotate " for this castle, but honestly, I just clicked on their icons from the left toolbar since I didn't remember all the names, oops.  Note to self: if you're decorating all four sides of a building, don't forget to use "Rotate." I totally skipped it once, and then couldn't figure out why some sides of my columns ended up looking bare... mystery solved! The biggest challenge with this castle was that I ...
