HAND IN CHECKLIST - PLEASE READ!!!

A number of you are still unsure about exactly what to hand in so here is a list of everything:

- A CD or DVD containing your 3D S Max files... (If your work has been created in Max 2010 I will be unable to open it so you must export your models as objects!!)

- Also on the disc you must include all textures and materials (If you do not do this I will not be able to mark you on how well you have used materials)

- Your final 3 stamp images (These MUST be presented on stamp templates) the images need to be on the disc saved as image files, you can also hand in printed versions if you wish

- A print out of your whole blog (Remember this is the written work for the project!)

Finishing Touches

Hello Everyone I have made a Photoshop stamp template for you to use if you wish



Please note:


- it is high res (for printing) so your renders will need to be at least 2800 x 1900 pixels to avoid losing quality

- You must present your 3 images as stamps, You are free to create your own template for more credit if you have time to do so.

- You do not have to print the images
