N o t e

The limited descriptions of rendering given in these pages do not
show the full value of different types of lights, materials and rendering
methods. The reader is advised to experiment with the facilities
available for rendering.

Second example - Rendering a 3D model ( Fig. 15.29 )

1. Construct 3D models of the two parts of the stand and support
given in the projections (Fig. 15.28) with the two parts assembled
together.
2. Place the scene in the ViewCube/Top view, Zoom to 1 and add
lighting.
3. Add different materials to the parts of the assembly and render the
result.

Fig. 15.28 shows the resulting rendering.
