Day one:
Creating shapes, moving objects

·         Draw objects in perspective view

·         Use arrows to move objects - within the different views

·         Small house within the view will take view back to default view

·         Use hand to pan the view (bottom right)

·         Select, move, rotate, resize – in menu bar - then use the arrows

·         Right tool bar – standard primatives – basic shape objects to use


Bananas are difficult to create but here goes :

Used the bevel tool to increase the length and add increase of size to the shape, tried the bend tool to give added shape to the banana unfortunately this didn't work soo well but by changing the colour to red I have created a chilli - tahdah!  Meshsoft gave are more uniformed shape to the object.

Note to self for future
Create additional segments when drawing the shape - allows more control on editing the shape later.


the grapes were cloned, and moved, being careful of where the images are being placed.  Looking at all views check the placements of the objects are correct.
