Case Study: Wireframe Creation
The case study for this lesson is ‘Toy car’. The focus of this case study is to create a wireframe model of a
toy car as a first stage of concept designing .You will build the model in Generative Shape Design
workbench using the required wireframe tools.
You will be given with the set of reference elements using which you will create 3D wreframe geometry.

Design Intent
Create a quick model of the car considering the overall
dimensions of the car. This is to understand the overall
shape of the model during shape design.
• Create a reference boxes of required size using a
curve mesh.
Create feature lines on the model to understand the
shape and visual characteristics of the car.
• Create a spline and connect curve to form a 3D
feature lines
The design intent is to create wireframe model of a toy car at concept stage. While you create a wireframe
model you will practice the several wireframe creation tools.
The model should meet the following given design intents.
