Modeling my House V: The Building Begins

Rodrigo Duarte Nov, 20th 2012 0 Comments

This is the My House Project tutorial in which we begin to build. We already have things set up and it is time to create the volumes for the house. We will outline the parts of the house using cubes and will refine them afterwards.

Time to begin putting things into our scene. We will add a ground plane and a raised sidewalk. That will be the foundation. We will also add a Lightdome and combine it with a directional light for a sunny day effect.
