I still think Maya is difficult to use just trying the tutorial is tough enough but modeling an airport? 3ds max has my vote at the moment. The floor plan for the airport is complete now need to collect textures and begin modeling on Maya. The table and chair designs are finished need to model those as the glasses and the plates and already done. Still need to design the room that it all goes in. A little(big) challenge to myself if I have the time is to start making the inside of the airplane thats sitting in the tarmac outside the window.

Moving along with the programs, and still so far I prefer 3ds Max over Maya, yesterday we made a fish, and today we worked on Maya learning more of the complicated editing options, we also talked about and painted the models that we had built the previous day. I have also created some sketches of the items that will be placed in my table scene. Enjoying the course so far.

Friday 3rd September

Collected information and images for a modern dining space, these included chairs, tables, cutlery, plates, and glassware. Room design was easy as the first image is what I had envisioned. Lighting wise it will be all artificial as the room will be windowless. I have decided to have a black glass table with black leather chairs.

Just had my first go at Maya, wow is it slightly more complicated than 3ds Max but I'll get round to using both. Brainstorming ideas for the airport lounge went quite well, now to get pictures.
