The inspiration for this was a frosted sugar cookie (seen below).

I chose to use a picture of a circular object because my structure uses a polar coordinate system so trying to map a rectangular image was challenging. However, because this picture is still rectangular I was having issues mapping it correctly onto the panels. I then saw a clever idea from another student (thanks Jimmy!) and decided to use a strip of the image which would look like a cookie when rotated around the origin. The image I actually used can be seen below.

Because of the way the adaptive panels were organized in my model, I had to separate the “inner circle” from the rest of the panels so the cookie would look circular and not triangular. This was done using the following code blocks:

Once that was done I imported the file and made sure it was organized in the same way as my panels.

Since the image is circular, flipping it didn’t really apply but I did add the option to invert the image which basically turns the cookie inside out.

Lastly, I flipped the panels to make them visible and colored them.
