Steps for Sketch
Create a construction box from the origin that is 2 cm x 12.5 cm
Create one center construction box for the ghosts from the center of the 2x12.5 construction box.. We only need one because we will linear pattern entities later.
Create the one half of the ghost using the line tool - use smart dimensions. Don't’ create the pupils yet
Use the mirror entities tool and reflect the other half of the ghost over the x axis.
Use the square tool to create the pupils and linear pattern to create the pupil in the other eye.
Select the finished ghost and linear pattern it to create more ghosts for a total of 4 ghosts.
Create a construction circle for pacman. There is enough space for one ghost box between pac man and the last ghost.
Use line tool and smart dimension to create the top half of pacman’s mouth
Reflect the top half of pacman’s mouth over the y axis.
Create the rest of pacman’s body using the arc tool. Start from the rightmost ends of the top and bottom of the mouth.
Create a smaller square inside the the ghosts eyes that is equidistant from the top and the bottom and touching the right side.
The dots that pac man are eating are square. Use the center rectangle tool to create a box from the middle line. They are equidistant, so use linear pattern to create the other dots.
Use the edge of the first ghost box to create the surrounding lines around the first ghost using the line tool and then bidirectional offset entities and cap ends.
Copy those over using the linear pattern tool to surround each of the other ghosts and pacman
Create dots that are the same width as the surrounding lines and use linear pattern tool to create the others round them. Make sure they are on the same horizontal y line as the other barrier lines.
Fillet all of the barrier lines and dots try to make the dots at round/spherical as possible
Fillet the corners and top edges
Create Miss Pacman as a companion to Pacman using the linear pattern tool
Create a square bow center using the center rectangle tool
Create the square loops of the bow using the corner rectangle tool from the middle of the bow center.
Make sure to make the model 200% bigger for a less stringy and smoother finish because when it was originally printed the model contained too much detail for it to look complete.
