Small Derelict Village Exercise

          Airsofting is what I was thinking when I made this exercise. I added two boxes, a cylinder and a tube to start with. I find my box small for my design so I extrude it (Figure 1). Maybe you will ask me why I did not change the length of this object, it is because I already converted it to Editable Poly. Or use scale, it is I find extrude easier than using the Scale tool.

          After that, I used Boolean option to make a hole to my box so that it will look like a building (Figure 2). I also added stairs which can be found in Stairs option to add more detail to my building (Figure3).

          To show a ruined building, I manipulate the vertices of my object to add some kind of a dent effect to the wall (Figure 3).

          This might not look really good but at first I really want my design with a messy look. So that the feeling of my village is like there is a war going on (Figure 4).

          I also added a barrel look design for my cylinder (Figure 5). Because I sometime see barrels on a place for airsofting. Most probably even just a small objects just for people to hide is okay for this kind of design.

          It would have mean nicer if I put small boxes to add bricks effect and little holes from the wall to add "damage" effect on the building.
