Artifact 1

For Artifact 1, I chose to model a low poly X-Wing Star fighter. I began by drawing an orthographic sketch that showed the front, top, and side views of the ship which helped to lay out what I wanted it to look like. To build the model I used basic shapes like boxes and cylinders.  I then used Convert to Editable Poly to shape and adjust the geometry. I used the Extrude modifier to pull out details like the wing shapes and the back of the engines.  I built the guns and the front of the the nose by itself using convert to editable poly aswell. The poly count is 6013.
