Activity :House and Castle

For the house, I learnt how to turn an object into an editable poly and delete sections of it to suit the task...For the house I needed to remove the top for the room and the side for a door.


For the castle I started out buy making a box, then I made the tubes, using auto grid so that were connected to the castle.
I converted the box into an 'editable poly', Clicked the top and bottom of the box to delete them.


To make the arched entrance I created a sphere and positioned it in the front of the castle where I would want the arch... under Geometry and Compound objects, I selected 'Boolean' and 'Pick Operand B'....then clicked on the sphere...but because at first I still had the selection on the sphere, it did not cut it out. I re-did the whole exercise whilst making sure the selection was on the castle.




 To make the cones at the top...I used the align tool to make sure the cone sat on top of the tubes...to make the towers.


To make the walls look like castle wall....I used the 'Boolean' tool same as before...except with a box against each wall.
