Where did you get the mushroom, or did you make that too?

I'm sure you will, you're probably just having a bad day for driving, we all have them, to show how much i improved i took a mock test a week before my test and got 16 minors and 1 major, the day of my test i passed with only 8 minors

I feel the same :frown:

I even have it now retake my theory again as it has run out :frown:

I haven't even taken my test once yet, it's in Feb, but she said I might have to put it back and I come out of every lesson practically crying because I don't feel like i'll ever pass!

Talk to your instructor about it, if you feel it's that bad, talk to him/her and explain that you don't think you can pass

Are you a perfectionist by any chance?

About 20 minutes to get the general shapes and scene, and then about 1 hour teaking the lights and textures. :smile:

you can see the vid here. http://vimeo.com/82491541

I know I can do it, and I have about six lessons left beforehand (christ that's not many), but I'm 99.9% sure I wouldn't pass how I currently am. I'm not that bad at driving, just need to learn to think about what the gradient's like before I do things...
Yeah I am, I just get really frustrated and upset every lesson cos I don't ever feel like I'm getting any better!

Haha thanks! Its pretty basic shapes though, it took ages to render the final image though. And to render the footage for vid, took about 9 hours.

Ok being a perfectonist isn't easy (trust me i know) what you have to uderstand is that although you may think that perfection is the only way, come to the realisation of the truth, no-one is perfect at driving when they first start, yes you have some ones who are naturally talented but they all have things which let them down,

Focus on things which you can control, you will never achieve perfection (no-one is perfect) so just learn to relax and not see things in black or white, you may think that anything short of perfection is wrong and you've failed, but also remember this if we as a race could do things prefectly first time, then there would be no education system, not music teachers, no jobs

EVERYONE makes mistakes, it's all part of the learning expierance
