Planning my avatar......... FINAL

Success!! I have thought up a really good idea for my avatar which relates to me in every single way and is also quite easy to create on 3D Max. I decided to create an avatar based on the card game "Poker." For the past 4 years I have been obsessed with the game and art of playing poker, I really love playing and watching the game. So my avatar will look like a real professional poker player. The environment he will be placed in, will odviously be in a poker room which will consist of my avatar sitting down on a poker table in a casino.

MY AVATAR

I did some research on what my avatar will look like and I really want my avatar to look like my favourite poker player "Phil Hellmuth."



So basically I got an idea to have my avatar wear a black baseball hat and black sunglasses preferably holding some playing cards or poker chips. The clothes he will be wearing will be a simple black polo shirt, maybe with a poker logo on it, blue jeans and white trainers.

MY ENVIRONMENT

I have an idea of my environment being a poker room in a classy casino. The main thing you will see is the poker table in the centre of the room with my avatar sititng down playing with either chips or cards. Around the table there will be a bar, a large, flat TV screen and other features that will make my environment look more like a casino. Because I have experience in going to poker tournaments in casinos, I know exactly what poker rooms look like, so this will be useful in making it look as realistic as possible.
Here's an image that I got from the internet showing you what a poker room in a casino would be like.



The main object of my environment will be my poker table so I think its important that I know exactly what my table will look like. I grabbed this image that I like from the internet because it has the poker chips and playing cards on it, so people who see my project will instantly reaslise that its a poker table.



A real life professional poker tournament



I decided to add this video to my blog to show what a real life poker tournament looks like. As you can see from this video, the poker room looks very classy, with a bar and beautiful waitresses in dresses. This is how I want my poker room to look like.
