Playing around...

I have to say I don't tend to step away from the animation very much so I thought it might be fun to create a simple modelling/texturing/lighting thingy to teach myself a few new bits and pieces and dust off some of the old things that I've picked up over the years. So what I've opted for is to recreate our nice little dining area at home here in Lochhausen.

So this is what I'm starting with...

(The real thing)
And this is what I've got so far...

(The not so real thing)

Anyway we'll see how I go. I'm actually quite happy with it so far considering I haven't modeled anything decent in years and this was less than a days work. I have this week off so hopefully I can pop in some rough textures and post something new in the next day or so.

Cheers man. I'm hitting some snags at the moment but we'll see how I go. It's definitely not my strong point that's for sure. Haha neither actually. I'm doing it in Xsi.
