this ones much better guys.. especially where you put the candle..:p
but i think that the second one in the back kinda spoils the scene..
just a thought.. maybe change places with the second candle on the table with the one in between windows.. the bottle like one..
keep us updated..:p

Ok, still small changes for now, but it's getting there. More objects to import, more textures to tweak, still have to make some wine, etc.

Okay I'm jelious! user added image Nice pic you two! You seem to work good together! user added image Keep it up!

And deffinatly a GOOD idea to do the group stuff! I'd love to do something like that, as would a lot of newbie/begginers to Maya! Give the chance to dive into something big that will help build skills! And if that isn't a HUGE hint to Kevin I don't know what else to say! user added image

later mates!

Yep we are already in the process of setting up a challenge forum (roman will explain) and a regular monthly group scene.. for example, a city scene where anyone could model a particular thing like a car, building, lamp... that kind of thing..

or model a large tank / robot and everyone would build a part for it

should be fun and we shall be starting the first project in the next couple of days.

Ok, this is a new test render, still lots to do, have to change some textures and get rid of a candle, melt the others,etc. Then after have to composite in the flames for the hallway torch and the candles. I've added Blondie's scrolls to the scene now, she made most of the objects you see here user added image
