Graphics Programming - Furniture and Fireworks

This week i decided to sit and play about with my code a little bit and attempted to make some small scenes.

Trip to Ikea

I decided to take a nice little trip around the Ikea website and picked a few pieces of furniture to try and recreate in my scene. 

For the fantastic price of £25 this coffee table could be yours! 
A little pricey at £140 but this BILLSTA table is well worth it.

The comfiest chair you will ever sit in.

Wouldn't this just look fantastic in your house

Fireworks

I also decided to try and add in some particle effects and try and make fireworks as all the pretty displays i seen on the 5th November kinda inspired me to make my own.

So far i have a bunch of particles that fire up in the air and explode but they don't quite look like fireworks just yet...

In the first video you can see the particles appear and explode and just go everywhere which looks a little more like explosive snow.

In the next video you can see what is actually happening a little better, the firework is launched upwards and then explodes when it reaches about 10 on the y axis. 
I have only spent a few hours on this so far but once i can figure out how to contain the explosion so it looks more like a firework i should be able to get the effect that i am looking for.


Thanks for reading! Any questions or feedback i would love to hear from you.
