Lighting

This was a very quick and easy effect to do. All I needed was to use the lighting effect and place it at the right direction and distance and the light effect should shine the teapot at the bottom left as shown below.



Using Materials

This is my first attempt on using the colour effects on shape and objects. Here I have created two spheres which contains colours. The blue sphere may look like it is just blue itself but it is also combined with white colour. Using Material Editor I used Specular Level and Glossiness to add an effect on the sphere. The green sphere also has two more colours combined with it, blue and yellow. There are three more shapes that I have used with patterns of colour combined.

Search Board


This is my December board, I've added a snowy
background with a snowman and Santa Claus. It is the meaning of cold, frost and cosy day.













This month reflects on Spring with an eagle fyling at the background and Homer Simpson sleeping and relaxing on the grass.











For August I've used a Sunny beach background and added a person wearing an icecream costume to reflect it is hot and astonishing month.

This mood of the month is described as happiness again enjoying the wonder sun at the beach through Summer. I've added an extremely hot sun image to justify that the weather over Summer be hot. Just to make it this borad funny I've added a image of a man buring in flames because of the hot sun. :)

Second Week - How I did on the new modelling techniques


This week I've learnt alot more by drawing any kind of shape or object and converting it to a 3D shape. All it needed is to convert it to a edittable ploy and adjust the edges to create a sword shape. I've also included a text above which is converted to a poly aswel and then extrude it to make a nice adaptable 3D model.



This is well......was suspose to be a bowl but I preffered it to be called a lamp.

My first 3D model



This is my first attempt using 3D Studio Max for
this semester. To begin creating an apple, I've started drawing a sphere which views like a ball. It needed some effect in which I've right-clicked it into a poly so that it can be edited into however shape or size I want. I've then used the soft smooth tool that converts the sphere so that I can drag it to create an apple.

Once the shape of the apple is complete I've then begin the next part is into creating a stem. To do so I create a cone then rotate it to about 30 degrees and then fiddle the size by dragging to the right dimension.

Once thats completed I've then created a cylinder for the surface so that the apple can be placed above it. To make it more interesting, I've also included a donut and placed it next to the apple.

I feel that my attempt was a good start and my 3D models still needs some improvement. But overall I hope to gain and learn more with this experience as time goes through.
