Where's my DRAWS at?

While adding some components in to the kithcne to make it seem like every one's now days kitchen, i wanted to model a set of draws. Starting off with with a polygon cube i first corrected the height and width, once this was done i had to extrude the top faces inwards to make more layers to the cube. After extruding the faces inwards i then selected the new set of faces and extruded the upwards. This will help define the draws and give them a unique finnish. Here is an example















Next it was time to create the sides of the shelves, and was done from a singe polygon cube which was then duplicated so they were fitted on either side. Same as the sides the back part of the draw had to be created and was duplicated from the side and rotated to fit on the back of the draw. I haved to adimit alot of duplicating has been done when creating these models, same with the next part. The first base draw i created was duplicated and positioned on both the top and bottom of the draw, this saved me the time of creating another draw base. Because for each model i created e.g draw sink draw and so on, i created them so they were able to operate during animation such as doors opening and closing.

This meant i had to create a set of shelves in sid ethe draws to make it more realistic looking when the draws open during animation. This was done by creating poly cube and just adjusting the position of each of them inside the draw. Here is an example.















No point have draw with out nay draws is there eh?,this part i really like doing as i had to create a set of draws for each indivsual slot. once i created one i just duplicated them and slotted them in their right position. I didnt want them to be all the same sizes so i made a draw the was half the size of the others, as you can see in the picture above. After inserting the draws in their allocated postion i could say that the draws were completely finnished but i felt a little incomplete. I thought to my self why not duplicate the whole draw so i can have a set of draws to place in the kitchen, whihc i did lol. Here is the finnished product
