Description

This course will teach complete beginners key modelling techniques in 3Ds Max

from modelling foundations to finishing your own eye catching cartoon scene.

Why Learn 3ds Max?

3D studio Max has been used commercially for 23 years and is robust and efficient

software for both low and high polygon modelling for games, commercials and architecture.

It remains a popular choice for major game studios around the world.

What 3Ds max offers above other 3d modelling programs is it's huge amount of modifiers

which makes the modelling process fast, flexible and easy.

Students can get a free 3 year license to use the full program or you can download a

free one month trial from the Autodesk site.

The course is broken down into two easy to follow parts:

Part 1: 3ds Max Modelling Techniques

Your teacher is Niko Ala-Opas from games company Twisted Ark will guide you through the foundation

of 3ds Max.

In order to speed up learning we focus on the core tools that are more useful for a beginner to utilise.

Making learning less daunting and faster so you can practice the essential techniques right away.

Starting with creating and modifying basic primitive shapes, you will then cover in more detail:

Customising The UI: Setting up the user interface and applying materials to 3d objects

Slate Material Editor: Applying colours to your 3D models

Edit Poly Modifier: How to extrude, bevel, cut, connect, chamfer, bridge, inset and weld your models

FFD modifier: Bend, Twist and deform 3D shapes

Splines: Create more curved geometry and lathe a vase shape

Practice exercises are included to keep you challenged and inspired and we have a Facebook

group so post your work in progress, finished work and ask questions for professional feedback.

Please Note: We do not go through UVW unwrapping in 3Ds max and texturing in Photoshop

during this course.

Blocking out the main forms of the house

Modelling details such as the roof and windows utilising splines and edit poly

How to stylise the 3D scene

Applying colourful cartoon style materials
