Now that we have some metal boxes, I counted that I rally made 11 different ones over the past 3 days. First, the one i FilterForge, then the two in Cheetah3D that I added dirt to in OmniGraffle, then four boxes with textures from CGTextures (of which I showed you two), and the last four comes in two flavors, opened or closed.<\/p>\n

So, now its time to put them to good use, and what would be a better use than make a few merchant desks.<\/p>\n

But first, I realized I do not have any inkers or quills. I found a set of good quills made by Supercaptain at the Dundjinni forum, but inkers, not any good ones.<\/p>\n

So, let’s start up Cheetah3D<\/a> again, and make one. First, we make a Spline by placing some dots for the outline of our inker.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then we Sweep this outline, and do some Catmul-Clark subdivision to it to make it smoother.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I then use a cylinder and a cone to Boolean remove the center and widen the opening. We use a class texture for the inker, but we place it on a plate that I made the same way as a few days before. For the plate, I use a few different metal textures, playing with the bump map to make one of them look hammered. At last, we place a black cylinder inside the inker, the ink.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Here are two different \u00a0inkers, I really like that hammered copper plate, I think I’ll make a whole set of those one day. I also realized I need some papers piles for my desks, so using a few paper textures, I made paper stacks in OmniGraffle<\/a>. The jaggy edges is because I enlarged them to make them viewable on the web.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/p>\n

And here are two desks, using some of Bogies tables to build the desks, and some random other items found at the Dundjinni forum to add some spice.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I think these desks add some real flavor to the stores, and as always, an action shot from an actual store.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I will keep doing store related things, stay tuned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
