If I showed that to my friend, he would say...

"Ha, I dont need Maya, I can make that in Paint"! user added image

but I really like the tent, except, arent tents with sharp, round tops?

Maybe add some ropes around it for support... then an oppening would be good...

and sure you can do it in paint - but it is fully 3d in maya user added image
