This course will look at the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. We'll look at what makes a good model in Maya and why objects are modeled in the way they are.

one slight problem with putting some background in is .. it may show the fact the chair is floating in the air. I`ll see about doing it if I get the rest of the image done first. as papalatistudios said its just like the concept which is great, but adding more this late may spoil it, but I`ll give it a go.

If you get the lighting right then you could still leave the floor of the room in darkness (except maybe a cone at the bottom door edge?) and not worry about adding a floor with textures.
Just an idea though and if time is pressing then save it for another day user added image

Ha ha - great work tweetytunes - this is looking excellent! I really like your final entry and I think adding the room in the background has added a good feeling of depth and atmosphere to your entry.

Well done mate and good luck!user added image

@tic I think I really got the "light by T.V" didn`t I.

I`m glad I put the image in the back as the background was alittle bland. The reason I chouse that one was because it was an photo I took and I was not sure on the rules with using other peoples pic`s in a challange like this one, where everything is surposed to made by you.

Will work on it in the future where I want to build the rest of the room including a window with rain out side and maybe multiyple chairs

thx for kind words once again.
