Suiling Rong Final Scene
 Beauty 
Inspiration

I just want to make some beautiful scenes for my final project. I started with a nature which was my favorite environment. Later I thought a flower in the field and a butterfly on the top. I got some flowers and butterflies pictures, but I never have one picture with both flower and butterfly in it. I love flowers and butterflies. I think that it will be a great idea. I know the plants which is hard to make, but I would like to learn more tool in the LightWave 3D. I decided to do it with my buoyant spirits.

Problems and Solutions

The problem I have are flower and its texture.  The object making is kind hard to make, it takes forever. And the texture of butterfly and flower is hard to make too. After I complete this project, I pretty much try all tools in the tool bar. Just try and play with each tool. There are all useful.

Position of camera is always a big problem. really I need early layout, and set up camera view for a couple scenes at first.
