[Real3d v.2]

[Monkey Wrench]

hmm. this should be intersting, the subject says gold mine, thats what we have to create right?

[SPWAR]

That's just right...you have to create anything that sounds like "Gold mine" :)

[BechD]

Here in my impression of a Gold Mine. It took about 2h30min to do so I decided not to use textures and make it look cartoonish.
Hope you like it.


3ds max 8 - 2h 30min
texture - about 5 min (ink'n'paint)
render - 30s

There is my golden mine.
Modelling time 3:30


Just try to make it look like some old forbidden golden mine, somewhere far far away. And it was some test for my modelling abilities, it helps to understand what things cost more time than should and you can think about how to improve it, so it's fun and useful challenge.

Good luck for everyone.
