I decided in the end to make a guitar as a prop for my final animation, i thought there are may ways to interact with a guitar and many different emotions connected to it, so thought it would fit the lyrics quite well.
At first it was very difficult getting the shape right, especially the whole in the middle, especially working out how to get the correct curves on the guitar, i tried to copy the guitar in my room which helped a lot, compared to trying to copy something i couldn't physically look at. It meant i could really look in detail on the shapes and how to put it together.
It did take me a few attempts at getting the shapes right, especially when i would look at it smoothed as the shape of the blocks would change dramatically.
The tuning pegs were actually quite simple, as it was basically two shapes that i could then duplicate and place into the guitar.
At first with the body and strings i thought about downloading or looking for a guitar texture but decided to just attempt to make the strings using long tubes, and bending them at the top using the lasso tool.
