Here's some early work on my scene. I have the basic shape of my dog house, and it's starting to take shape pretty well. |

For those who haven't figured it out, Spitfire (Vic) is my Son. So he like other new user's here are trying to learn trueSpace and show the world what their working on with great pride. All comments or words of wisdom will be enjoyed by him (and me). After all although I am teaching him TS, YOU guys taught ME!:) |

Here I was thinking the dog was named Steinie! :D
Generational transitioning is a good thing!
Give a dog a bone and it can eat for a day.
Give a son trueSpace and he can make all the bones and dogs he wants! :cool: |

Stienie's son? You lucky thing, Spitfire! Many of us had to struggle our way up the trueSpace ladder, learning and making friends as we went - you have a wonderful master on tap from the off!
Welcome to the forums and the world of trueSpace. You come from a great pedigree, I look forward to watching you make the 'top dog' proud! |

You need to start texturing next. Lessons start soon. I like how you did the chain and bowl.
P.S. (did you do your homework?);) |

Thanks for the comments everyone. I chose to do a water bowl to fill in some space and to show that Spike is on a strict diet of water and trick-or-treaters.:D |

This is looking cool. Is your final render gonna be a realtime render? It would be cool if people really pushed the realtime render capabilities, I plan on that myself.
I think the shape of the doghouse is neat, I can see how it will look really spooky when textured. I wish I had a ghost dog. They are probably easy to maintain. |

Real time rendering? Let me just remind you that I am a noob to this whole TrueSpace thing. I'll learn about that when I get there, but this scene is still far from being finished. |

while you are working in Workspace, you can take snapshots of your work. When you are done, you can also take a snapshot of the workspace. This is accomplished using the 'Render To File' button in Workspace. That is a real time render. An offline render uses a different rendering engine, such as VRay, to create a 'snapshot'. |

Here is my latest image. Sorry it took so long for this one. It now has some texturing and lighting, which I'm still working on. |

Like I said, I am currently working on the textures and lighting. I have changed the texture of the roof and have redone the colors on the lighting. I'll have pics of the new and improved version of the image below as soon as soon as possible. All I have to do is work in some finishing touches before this scene is complete.:banana: |

This is the ghost based on my original drawing modeled in truespace. This picture shows the mesh next to the final. I used soft selection and pulled on a sphere to create the shape of the ghost. |
