CG Academy - Modelling Fundamentals Set

If you are new to 3D in general or simply new to 3dsmax, this series will give you all that you need to create your own 3D models. This series has been designed to give you a deep understanding of 3dsmax's modelling system.

With over 22 hours of tutorship, this series will give you a foundation with the very basics in scene navigation, keyboard shortcuts, coordinate systems, snaps and orginisation. Then Chris takes you on to modelling with 3D Primitives such as cubes, cylinders, spheres and so on, and then on to how to change, enhance and combine those primitives using Modifiers and Spacewarps.

Later in the series you are given the principles and skills to effictively poly model, to create model elements using 3dsmax's Spline tools for sweeping/curved surfaces, and finally how to model using Sub-Division Surfaces, the current industry wide modelling stanard in Film, Games and TV production.
