We decided to change it to the normal YouTue Play Button font (Roboto), and it worked out perfectly.We gave the outer shell of the dish an extruded base for thickness.We then started to round out the corners, to make it seem more clean, and more ergonomic, which is also more like the real play buttons.We then cut out the YouTube logo through Convert Entities, and then Offset Entities, and lastly, Extruded Cut.We started using Fillet on the YouTube logo, which turned out to not look as accurate as the Dome feature, which became more fluid and accurate.Next, we cut out the Play logo in the center of the YouTube logo.After that, we cut the Shkeffy logo into the bottom of the Play Button.We then bumped out ‘Shkeffy’ from the main Play Button.We then made the Play Button skinner, to use less filament.We thickened the ‘Shkeffy’ to have more diverse sizing.We thinned the ‘Shkeffy’ a little to make it a little smaller, as it was too big after thickening.We used fillet to cut the Play logo to a diamond looking shape.We then created a stand using fillet and extruded cut.(I printed without a stand to hang on a wall)
