For our class project, you’ll be creating a unique gnome of your own design!

Now that you have the gnome completed from our lessons, I’d like you to save a new version of your file with the 'Save As...' command, and then make the gnome uniquely yours.

You can do this any way you’d like, but some example adjustments you can make are:

- Changing fabric colors or patterns
- Trying a different skin color
- Adjusting the shape of their hat, or give them hair on top of their head instead of a hat
- Changing their beard color and styling
- Giving them a unique background
- Model them a small prop (like a simple mushroom or rock)
- Adjusting your lighting placement or colors

After you’ve made all of your adjustments, post your new render to the gallery to show it off to me and all the other students!

As an example, here's my unique version of the gnome for the class project.

I’ve changed the hat to a helmet, adjusted the materials, and combed the beard a little differently. I’ve also given the gnome lighting that is a bit moody. Sort of like the gnome is sitting next to a campfire on a full moon night.

I’ll provide feedback on each render posted to the gallery and let you know what looks fantastic as well as anything that could use some adjustments.

Have fun making your gnomes!
