本视频教程是由Udemy机构出品的游戏模型资源艺术制作训练视频教程，Uartsy Game Art Apprenticeship，时长：超过10小时，大小：19 GB，MP4高清视频格式，教程使用软件：3ds Max，Zbrushi，作者：Brett Briley，共12个章节，语言：英语。

3D Studio Max，常简称为3ds Max或MAX，是Autodesk公司开发的基于PC系统的三维动画渲染和制作软件。其前身是基于DOS操作系统的3D Studio系列软件，最新版本是2013。在Windows NT出现以前，工业级的CG制作被SGI图形工作站所垄断。3D Studio Max + Windows NT组合的出现一下子降低了CG制作的门槛，首选开始运用在电脑游戏中的动画制作，后更进一步开始参与影视片的特效制作，例如：《X战警II》，《最后的武士》等。

Zbrush是传统和创新工具的完美组合，让您创造复杂、高品质的图形，快速有效地表达自我,这些功能曾经在《指环王3：国王归来》这部影片的数字建模方面被广泛运用（主要是魔兽）。它能给於您即时反应，即时绘制您的图像，它也非常适合於情节串联图板和概念化设计，功能足於将您的作品打造完美。直观、易於使用和功能强大，Zbrush将激发您创造多面的、震撼人心的图像，不管您是个新手，还是位专业人士。Zbrush独特的2D和3D功能的组合将产生动人的效果，不需要您经过痛苦的漫长学习。

ZBrush 是一个数字雕刻和绘画软件，它以强大的功能和直观的工作流程彻底改变了整个三维行业。在一个简洁的界面中，ZBrush 为当代数字艺术家提供了世界上最先进的工具。以实用的思路开发出的功能组合，在激发艺术家创作力的同时，ZBrush 产生了一种用户感受，在操作时会感到非常的顺畅。ZBrush 能够雕刻高达 10 亿多边形的模型，所以说限制只取决于的艺术家自身的想象力。ZBrush软件是世界上第一个让艺术家感到无约束自由创作的3D设计工具！它的出现完全颠覆了过去传统三维设计工具的工作模式，解放了艺术家们的双手和思维，告别过去那种依靠鼠标和参数来笨拙创作的模式，完全尊重设计师的创作灵感和传统工作习惯。
