For You to Eye Up.....!!!

I added colour to the flooring, just hope you also agree that the colour goes, because it's colour reference from T&J. I think it works well, gives off a very soft,tranquil look but not step siding away from the cartoon feel.
A poster Of Alesha Dixon is added (for Fer sake!!!) on the fridge, held with round fridge magnets & a Tom & jerry calendar to promote the theme!!!

My Modelled Objects

Yo guys, i just uploaded all my models n combined it as one object. so if u want jus seperate it init. u should be able to just Drag + Drop straight into the final scene and it should be in place already. but i dont fink the textures that i did for it will be there. anyways. heres the link:

Hye guys.. i c every1 is having bad times. im gettin anooyed aswell.. not much can be done on myaya. need to upgrade my PC for real. lol.. but im bare skint.. jus been sorting out bare personal stuff recently.. so yeahh.. this weekend is jus giving myself some space n rest from all them kitchen n stuff.. but yehh. guess we jus gotta put it all 2gether 2moro init.. hope to get alot done.. well, catch u's 2moro.
Im on the say boat as Richard, in an unfortunate event my brother formatted my memory stick where all my work files were placed. Lucky enough I had most of the Maya files and print screen saved on me personal hard drive but for Dan presentation it was not so lucky. Another reason why i was not alble to fufil the objectives is becuase i am having problems rendering in maya software the computer seems to crash on me. But for some reason th files seems to render fine on the uni pc and also sending it to one of my friends they did not seem to have any trouble rendering.
