Clarke Steinback Ph.D. 3D Computer Modeling CSCI 140 Spring 2005 Tong Thao

2005 Spring ->3D Computer Modeling ->Galleries ->Tong Thao Tong Thao   Desk Scene   Hell on Earth Inspiration Basically my desk is a piece of hell on earth.  It is like a prison that I can’t escape.  It is a place where I don’t want to be or spend most of my time.  I study hard and try to get good grades to improve my skills.  That’s why I hate my desk; I spend too much time on it.  The picture in the paper is a symbol of what I would rather be doing then studying.  I would rather play a sport with my brothers then study.  But it has always been business before pleasure for me.

Time Frame I took more time then there was to finish my desk scene.  I had to stay after lab a couple times to finish everything.  I didn’t spend as much time planning the desk scene and now I regret it.  I spent maybe 10 minutes in lecture to draw out a desk.  The thing that took me the longest to do was texture.  I couldn’t get the right texture or I couldn’t get the texture turned a certain way.  The modeling was easier then anticipated because everything is already there.  All you have to do is drag and drop.  The lighting was fairly easy because I had used a spot light and it was easy to manipulate.
