Project #1 - JR 3D Building - Model Base

      
          This is the general base of the 3D model for JR's restaurant, following the general format of the blueprint I posted earlier. I decided to go with relatively few windows r\to keep the feel of the restaurant (if the customers want a view of the lake/swamp behind the restaurant, they can take the stairs to the balcony or second floor, both of which I may add in one of the upcoming projects). I do plan to add stairs going up in the upper right corner of the main room. The window in the separate wall between the dining area and the kitchen is where food is handed through from the kitchen to the waiters/waitresses. Also, in order to keep the format, I decided to change the door position to be closer to the lower left corner instead of centered on the closest wall.

Project #1 - JR 3D Building - Blueprint Idea


              I have decided on this blueprint to use as a base for my first project. My plan is to make an interior to JR's BBQ restaurant in order to compliment the exterior I designed in GDD 110. This blueprint was chosen due to it coming from a similar kind of restaurant, and it had a similar layout to the one I imagined the restaurant having. Though, I may make some modifications to it regarding appliance and furniture placement, but the general layout of the blueprint fits the ideas I have for it.



           In terms of interior design style, it will be the same cartoonish texture style as the Maze that I made for my previous final project. Also, if you take a look at the game's title screen (another project), it gives you a preview of the interior wall style of the restaurant (which is a sort of redwood board style). I can also re-use some of the furniture models from this maze in the new project, along with making some new ones in the same style (restaurant chairs, tables, a counter, appliances, etc).
