Francisco Cortez Desk Scene
 Untiltled 
Inspiration

My inspiration is the corner of my room. It consists of a computer, printer, scanner, CDs, files, and many other obsolete items. They all sit on a metal stand that pretends to be a desk. Amazingly, enough though all this stuff fits and I manage to work there. This rendering of a desk scene is my solution to my problem.

The desk in the scene is designed to be able to perform multifunction on. The circular indent on it is for the worker to have access to a new platform with a spine of the chair.  The chair itself is cushioned and anatomically correct, for back support. It is also capable, adjusting its height. The computer consists of a flat screen; this makes more space and looks cooler. The lighting is hung on the ceiling, giving it an even cooler look. And finally adding the final touch to it is the poster on the wall; it personalizes it, and gives me inspiration.

Problems and Solutions

The problems I encountered consisted of learning the program. The solution was spending about 40 hours on the computer. The glass wasn't as hard as I anticipated it, but I've seen better, which I am aspiring to do. The biggest problem I'd say would be texturing. While being confused about how to do it, I found out that textures doesn't show up in modular mode, and another preset texture only shows up after rendering it. It basically took trial and error, and a lot of time to make this desk scene.
