I hope to make it realistic, yet slightly eerie. I would like to make the elephant appear greatly disturbed, and the mouse an innocent little thing.

The lighting would really help the effect, but I definitely need to do some studying up on it and practice ligthing moods in order to acheive the image I want. I also plan to make most of the objects out of polygons and then either convert them to Sub-Ds or just smooth them, since it will be a still image. I am not sure if I will be able to texture the scene either, although i would like to. I would need to learn more about UVs to create a very realistic image, but I'll see what happens. I don't want to start texturing some things and not have evrything textured, so I'll just stick with lighting right now.

I wanted to try and keep the scene simple, yet effective becuase I have a lot of other projects I am also working on.
