I found this project particularly challenging (Stressful, could possibly the plot of a horror movie). I knew before I started how I was planning to make my macarons, but I had some trouble with the texture on the edge. After a few attempts I went with using a liquid simulator that I turned into a mesh, and later combined with the top of my macaron. I also had some trouble modeling the teapot’s spout because I tried to use a shortcut
but I realized taking the time to extrude it would yield better results. I’m not very happy with how it all turned out, but I think I did okay. i only cried five times making this, so that's a win in my book.

I quite liked working on this, and I think the results were okay. I found trying to upload a picture to blogger with my phone very (very) challenging, but I managed to pull through. I also had a bit of trouble trying to get the lighting correct, since the colors I chose for my plates were pastels and so the light reflecting off of them sort of washed them out?? They looked like just plain white plates, but I lowered the strength of the lights and added another one from a different angle and I think that worked a bit better.
