Making a floating island (3dsmax)

[scrimski]

Enlighten about what? The modeling? The actual floating on some liquid surface? The design/&concept? It's a very broad question you ask.

Sorry i should have been more clear, my apologies.
Its about the modeling of the island.

My idea is to have an island floating in the sky.

It's all about reference. You won't be able to do anything, until you have a general idea about what you are making.

Sooooo....Floating Islands....

2 places come to mind in terms of where to look.

World of Warcraft Burning Crusdae - You might not play this game, but some of the coolest game environments live there.

You could even look at some of the in game islands to get a basic idea on how they made the low res game file.
