Hi All,
After browsing here for awaile, I thought it is a good time to send my first post...
I'm doing this "Dojo" as a personal project to learn some more...
It might become a background for animation I have in mind. (no, not another Matrix animation)
Done with Maya, Rendered with MR

Hope you will like it.

Thanks for the C&C.
I will look into this book (even though I just finished my yearly "Amazon" Budget)

This is my first try in Buildings and rooms.
I never tried to do anything like this before.
Therefore I took some references to lot of different Dojos.
I also went through the Matrix movie frame by frame... but never used it as a goal, just as a general reference.

Regarding the animation... I'm not sure I will do any, but I want to try something different.
I want to do tutorial to the first "Kata" in Shoto-Kan (Karate).
It is hard to learn them by books or even videos. And I feel that if I will have to animate it, it will improve both my animation and my Karate skills.
(And it will be with some value for others)

But this is a really big project for me.
I'm working full time (and some more) as computer (Software) engineer...

Please, any more C&C?
I know I have some basic problems here...
Thanks for your time!
