Star Fish

Final Render

For the eyes i had to make the middle part black to make them look lik eyes i always seem to forget how to change the colour id and have it written down on millions of picecs of paper!!!!!!
Colour Difference:
  • Set ID
  • Go Into Materials
  • Click Standard
  • Select Multi/Sub Object
  • Discard Old Material
  • Select Colour Of Material ....
I made a Star Fish to put in my Story... i made the star fish by creating a 5 sided cylinder shape to start with then after extruding out of the sides and creating the star shape. Then after making my star fish i realised that there was an easier way 3dsmax already has a star shape line which i could have lofted most likely if i had gone through the options!!! abit annoying!! :@

To Animate the seaweed i used the noise modyfier to make them move as if they are actuali under water, saving videos - common - render - time duration save as avi & cinepak.

this sea weed came out a bit wrong and looked lik a cactus i think i was slightly rusty from the break over xmas i have decided to restart it to get a better shape :)


Begining of the seaweed extruded from a cylinder and i used the move, scale and rotate object to make it more wavey....
