Digital-Tutors : Creative Development: Mixed Modeling Techniques in 3ds Max 2012

10 hrs. 11 min.| Released on August 1, 2011|Project Files Included (32 MB)

Required Software: 3ds Max 2012

In this collection of videos we learn several modeling techniques in 3ds Max 2012.These videos will delve in such modeling techniques as spline modeling, polygonal modeling, and sub divisional surfaces. Through these techniques we are going to create a highly detailed steam locomotive model. We will also be exploring some of the graphite modeling tools and their functionality while modeling. All the while keeping an emphasis on the importance of scene management in a production environment.
