Adding the Remaining Geometry

You’re getting near the end of this process. All that remains is to make a plane for the water with 20 sections in each direction and Width and Height set to 500. Scale and position it so it fills the space between the castle and the sky where the water would be. Name it Water.

Make a really long, stretched cube for the bridge on your own. Be sure to name it also. When you’re finished, you have six pieces of geometry (Figure 9-19). This is the minimum number of layers to make this scene work.

You can check out what the project should look like at this point in the Chapter 9 materials on the DVD. The file is named Final_Geometry_Chapter_9.ma.
