This mode was fun to create because it included using splines and lathe, which I had never used before and made me learn how to work with splines.  Lathe is used to make splines (lines) into 3D objects and can be confusing to beginners. It waws challenging and I had to redo it a few times until I got this model. I proud that I was able to finish the project on time and that it looked like an actual pawn.

The scene was fun because I had a lot of freedom to experiment with edit poly, noise, and mesh smooth. I had never even heard of these things but it was really cool to be able to create objects that looked more detailed than only using basic shapes. I was inspired by nature in the real world and how mushroom tend to be near something wet, hence the stream running through the scene. I also like the natural looking mushroom and rocks I created in this scene and it was fun being able to create different types of flowers, rocks, and mushrooms on my own. All in all, the scene was simple but made me really happy with the results

This scene was really quick but I love how it looks as it was my first time using materials and material editor. Material editor is used to give objects materials and make them look better overall. The way it could make them look better could be making it look more realistic, have more color, or just adding texture that helps the scene. I struggled at first when learning how to use the material editor but once I understood how it worked it wasn't too complicated. For this ring, I used a preset and made adjustments to get a look that I liked more. Overall, I think this piece looks really nice and simple but clean.
