3 D Studio Max

With the new program new challengers starts and new headaches...
Starting with this new programs there is way of making a person go back

The first exercise give was the lighting tutotial, of which we were given
four different room, with different light pionts.
1. hanging light
2. downlights
3. wall lights

One of our second project for constructions and detailing was to design a Gate house for a lodge or a game ranch. The brief was to choose any place where this gate house was to place.

I choose to do my Gate house for a game lodge in Namibia, near Okahandja.
The entrance gate had to be constructed using gumpoles and some brickwork..
It went thru' different stages of critts till the final one was approved.

The following was the drawing submitted.
