So I finished the 1 point lighting, I still find lighting on Maya fascinating. I'm not sure why i like messing with teh lights so much. This wasn't supposed to be anything but i keep trying to find some image in it. One of my friends said that it looked like a flower to them.

Light Saber Day: ???

okay, so today in class my perspective view got deleted for the light saber right after i finished the handle. I asked for help and the teacher assistant couldn't figure out how to get  it back either. So i ended up having to redo the bottom part of the light saber and the control box for it. I nearly got done with the control box and then next class (or at home this weekend) all i need to do is set up the lighting, put on the last couple piece of the control box, then create the saber, render, then im done

FINISHED: Table

Today I finished the table as well and it was actually more difficult then I thought it would be. I did like the final rendered version of it and I loved how the shadows turned out. Then with the lighting I love how the picture looks.

FINISHED: Orange

Today I finished the orange rendering. It did not seem to different from the apple tutorial, at least to me. I like how the final product turned out and I am happy with it.

FINISHED: Apple

 For the apple project we had to render an apple and the surface it was set on. I think this was our frist rendering project and I think rendering is really amazing for how good things look. I liked how you could play it and the camera goes viewing around the apple. I did have the final render done but then I stupidly deleted the file and only had time to do this.
