In our previous lesson, you learned how to make a DIY doorplate. During the process, you gained knowledge on how to use the “Add Custom Material” feature in the Lasermaker drawing tool. Today, our LaserMaker expert will continue to share with you the entry-level course, “LaserMaker Laser Creation: How to Make Customized Earrings.”

I. Scenario Introduction

Earrings, also known as ear pendants, are a type of adornment worn by women in ancient times. Nowadays, both men and women can wear earrings, which have become a fashionable accessory with a wide variety of styles. People often pair different earrings with their outfits. In this lesson, you will learn how to make your own unique earrings! Our LaserMaker expert will guide you through the process of customizing earrings.

II. Work Analysis

The focus of this project is to create custom “Goldfish Earrings,” which symbolize luck.

To complete the “Goldfish Earrings,” it is necessary to first design the style and then consider how to connect the different elements to achieve the desired effect. In this design, we primarily use different materials. The head of the goldfish will be made of leather, while the body will be crafted from acrylic. To transform this design into earrings, we need to use connecting rings to join the two parts, and finally attach them to the earring hooks to create the final product, the “Goldfish Earrings.”

1. Shape Creation

(1) Enter the keyword “simple drawing of goldfish” in Baidu Baike (a Chinese online encyclopedia) and select a picture you like to save. In the “Functional Area” at the top, click “File,” then “Open,” and double-click to open the saved goldfish image. See the image below for reference:

(4) Select the pattern with the mouse, and from the “Drawing Toolbar” on the left, click on the “Eraser” tool. Choose “Break Line Segment” to divide the goldfish into two parts, as shown in the figure below:

Tips: Dividing the goldfish into two parts is necessary for two reasons: first, different materials will be used in the production process; second, adding a connecting ring in the middle will make the earrings appear more lively and agile when worn.

2. Process Settings

(1) Select the “fish scales” and “fish patterns” of the fish body, and left-click the layer panel on the lower left to change the contour layer to yellow. Then, select the “fish head” and left-click the layer panel to change the contour layer to red, as shown in the figure below:

(2) Adjust the layer order in the lower right corner, arranging them in the order of “shallow engraving, cutting.” Double-click the yellow layer with the left mouse button and set the material, thickness, and process to acrylic, 3mm, and shallow engraving, respectively. Double-click the black layer with the left mouse button and set the material, thickness, and process to acrylic, 3mm, and cutting, respectively. Double-click the red layer with the left mouse button and set the material, thickness, and process to artificial leather, 1mm, and cutting, respectively, as shown in the figure below:

. Conclusion

In the production process of this example, we pondered for the first time on how to improve the work based on the original design style. Starting from the structure, the addition of a connecting ring in the middle of the “goldfish” made our work even more outstanding. Drawing and modeling are not difficult tasks; with more attempts and practice, everyone can become a better little designer!
