Software Used: 3D Max2010 SP1, Photoshop CS3

Introduction:
I wanted to portrait an observatory in the dawn time...
This light is tricky and sometimes it could be dawn or dusk...it's like the twilighted hour...
The era is undefined... retro or future, like the 5th dimension Tv Show mood...
It’s the same way we look foward in the beginning of an incoming year.

The first steps:
I looked in the internet for references of the building and acessories I wanted for the scene.

Modeling steps

The modeling was made by the polygonal method.
Extruding faces, cloning edges and all the tools that makes 3DMax so versatile to work with.
It took me 4 days to design and model the building. The plants are from Internet’s sites.
