A Place to lay my head...

I know what you mean, Miss B. I was just trying something, but it's not really working for me either. Even when I made some changes. Maybe I should just go plain on all the legs?

 

[Miss B]

Well, at least on the chair legs. If you're determined to have them match with the table, then yeah, I would make them all plain.

I would also make the chair legs straight vertical. Every time I see chairs with legs at an angle I keep thinking they're going to break, that they're not sturdy enough.

 

[eclark1894]

Okay, I'm getting conflicting advice on the angle of the chair legs.

 

[Miss B]

Sorry, someone told you to angle the legs? I've seen angled legs on chairs, but not with such skinny legs. Try first to make them plain and lets see.

 

[eclark1894]

Okay, so I re-did the legs and made them plain with a light taper on the end.

 

[Miss B]

YES!!! Much better. I like them now.

 

[Pendraia]

I like the last one the best but the one before was okay also...

Looking good Earl. May I ask, is there a bevel in the middle of the table? If so you may want to remove that as I don't think a place setting is going to balance well on that. LOL

 

[Miss B]

Are you talking about the bevel in the render on the previous page . . . the one where the table has a shiny top? I don't think this latest version has that.

 

[RAMWolff]

I sort of see it on the top of the newly textured one above unless Earl is planning on an inlaid wood look to the final table texture!

 

[Miss B]

AHA!!! I didn't notice that right away. I don't think it's a bevel though. Looks more like the texture didn't tile properly, but I could be wrong.

 

[eclark1894]

There's a "groove" in the table top. Something I was trying to see if it translated into a "design". The other way of doing it is to use a texture. I may just do away with it all together.

 

[eclark1894]

Took the groove out of the table since it obviously wasn't cutting it as a design. I need something else in that dining room though. Curtains, of course and ... chandelier?

 

[eclark1894]

I'm thinking that table might need an extra leaf and too extra chairs, too.

 

[RAMWolff]

Light source over the table for sure. Curtains are OK but Levelor blinds are more modern if you can do that.

 

[frogimus]

A sideboard/buffet, maybe?

 

[Miss B]

Light source over the table for sure. Curtains are OK but Levelor blinds are more modern if you can do that.

I like the idea of the blinds, and of course some sort of lighting.

I also was wondering about 2 more chairs and a longer table, so the leaf for the table would be a good idea.

I also like frogimus' idea of a sideboard, perhaps in the space between the single window on the left and the first of the 3 windows behind Dawn.

Nice modern drop light would look good Restaurant and Dining room popular LED crystal pendant droplights from China manufacturer - Shanghai Acclaim Industries Co., Ltd.

Hmm, have some fruit while I mull this over.

 

[RAMWolff]

table top looks awesome! The fruit looks perfect for gnashing on !
