Fruit Bowl

Using the modify tools I was able to create a Fruit bowl and some fruit. To create the Apples I started with a basic Sphere shape and then used the Edit Poly tool to modify the shape. With the Edit Poly tool i was able to give the sphere an indentation in the top and bottom. I achieved this by selecting a single Vertex to edit. I also used Soft Selection so that as i moved the vertex the area around the vertex was also effected to give a soft drop into the centre. The Edit Poly tool was then used again to pull a few Vertexes out from the sphere to create the uneven shape.

The Banana was more difficult, first i started with a cylinder with four-five sides. I also gave the cylinder five segments which would be used to bend the shape. To create the stem of the Banana i used the Extrude tool to pull the end face out slightly and then re-size it. This created the angle of the stem. Finally i used the Bend tool to bend the Banana to the desired angle.

The finally piece of fruit i attempted to make was an Orange. To create the Orange i repeated the steps i was to make the apple, however before using the Edit Poly tool i was the Scale tool to "squash" the sphere.

The Fruit Bowl itself was again made using a Sphere. I then changed the settings in the Soft Selection tool to make the top half of the sphere effected by the movement of the top Vertex. I then moved the Top Vertex down using the Edit Poly tool, which bend the Sphere in on itself and this created the Bowl Shape.
