A surprise party awaits its unsuspecting victim. Happy Birthday.

(Maya with Photoshop, 35hrs)

The cake, banner and doors are modelled by myself, the rest of the scene was created by the very talented Juan Carlos Silva for use with credit. The scene was rearranged and tweaked a bit from the original composition.

This was submitted for my school assignment for the rendering module. I wanted to create a mood of anticiplation, and evoke the supressed excitement of a great surprise.

Comments would be greatly appreciated, and I have a worklog which I can link on request.
