Dream Essence Medieval Room

Medieval Room by Debbie Overstreet. This 3d render features a castle interior room with stone walls, ornate candle fixtures and a pair of arched windows with a view to a blue moonlit sea beyond.
The scene pieces were modeled inside of Hexagon, a 3d program and then rendered within Carrara, another 3d program. Both programs are available at Daz3d. The stone textures were created inside of Paint Shop Pro and then imported into Carrara and added to the models.

Candle Fixture 3d Mesh


This is what the candle fixture model looks like in Hexagon before the textures are added in Carrara. I wanted to make something tall and elegant. I hope I achieved that with this simple model. I begin all of my designs with a primative. Primatives are simple shapes like a cube, sphere, torus and triangle. I usually begin with the simple cube. Then using the tools within Hexagon the cube is smoothed and then molded into a vase shape. Learn more about Hexagon and modeling with my vase tutorial here.

Stair Mote Mesh


This is the bottom step beneath the windows and candle fixtures. I wanted to do something different and add a small 'mote' at the bottom of the stairs. In Hexagon I modeled a circle and molded a step with an indention for the 'water'. To learn more about the modeling process in Hexagon check out my Arched Window Tutorial Parts 1, 2 and 3.

Window Mesh


This is just a simple cube flattened and reshaped. The opening for the window had to be removed and the edges molded to form an arch. This shape was modeled inside of Hexagon and imported into Carrara where the textures are added.

Scene Setup inside of Carrara


This is the completed scene inside Carrara 7 before it is rendered. The cone and bulb shapes are lights which must be added to illuminate the scene. Next to modeling and setting up the scene the lights are most important since they set the mood of the final render.
