| | Inspiration
My original plan was to create an image that looked completely organic. I wanted the table and lamps to look like they actually grew out of the surface like a tree. This plan unfortunately failed miserably around the second week when I couldn’t make Lightwave do what I had envisioned within my head. So, with one week to go, I just decided to make the basic requirements and play around with the textures just to see what I could do with Lightwave.

| | Problems and Solutions
My main problem was trying to create a very advanced scene for my first project which was easily remedied when I toned down my expectations and treated myself like a beginner. (The way I should have at the beginning) Other than that my only problem was dealing with loading my objects in lightwave. When loaded all the layers were not fastened together and made moving the objects coherently impossible. My fix was just to paste all the layers into one layer and delete the separate layers. This give you your object in all it’s glory and easily movable.
