Going for December

Well after my first 3d picture I was full of confident for my next one. In that one I wanted to create a room with a dining table and a christmas tree. First I wanted to create everything in this scene. Dishes, glasses, forks, knifes, cloth over the table a whole lot of little things. Then I started thinking and decided to do just what I was comfortable doing. Simple stuff or so I thought.

I started out creating a plane. Then I went on and created The Dining table. That was pretty simple. Just made a box and then use extrude and inherit on it. And of course like always change it to a polygon to manipulate it. When it was finished I added a wooden material on it. I did the same with the chairs.

Then we go to the hard part The Christmas tree.

First I created the base of the tree. For that I used a helix and a circle. Then I changed the parameters so it would round up like a christmas tree. Then I chose the circle and added it as a loft to the helix now I had the base of the tree ready.

Then my problem began when I added a hair and fur thingie to the tree. I didn´t seem to get my tree like I wanted to. And when I got close to it then my computer couldn´t handle it. so I just decided to go for it and try to make it as good as I could.

Then I just added some christmas balls on it by creating a lot of spheres :)
Now i needed to finish the room so I just added the walls that are build in 3d studio max. In the end I tried to play around with some lighting but I never seemed to get it any good. But practise makes perfect.

I added a wooden material to the plane for flooring
