Artist: Lukasz Szeflinski

Posted in: itsartmag

My main tool for modeling was 3dsmax 9. I have made some short movie captures of the scene so you can have a better look at how it looked like.

I mainly used basic polymodeling for all the objects and render spline for the hose and metal bars (sometimes sweep modifier). I was modeling and mapping basic things at the same time. I am always trying to use rendeable spline or sweep modifier on splines if there are...

Architectural Visualization 3ds Max Tutorials #4: Making of Waiting Something

Artist: atrujo

I have carried out this"making of" of my image waiting something to help people that this beginning with max or with v-ray, or those that are a little more advanced and it interests them some section of the article. The motivation of my work is almost always to progress! To learn more and more everyday. In this in short have to recognize that the motivation is the girl that appears in here.

Concept

In this image i wanted to give a sensation of peace and tranquility. I also wanted that the atmosphere was futurist but with an air retro, for what I thought of using futurist designs of the vanguards. The image this made up of two layer, the background (city) and the main scene where this the half plan and the first plan. When you already have a general idea of what will appear in the scene you only have to use two scenes (or more as it is of big the project) using the same camera later we will more thoroughly see this process.

For the city I use design of Antonio Sant'Elia. For the girl I use my visual memory and some images of some anatomy books for artists, but mainly the imagination.

Let's begin!

I'll show you how you can create and customize your own 3ds Max Shortcuts.  Although 3ds Max have already assigned default shortcut keys to a lot of its tools and commands, we can still override these settings or assign new shortcut keys to further enhance our work flow while working with 3ds Max.

This is to compliment my last entry, 3ds Max Shortcuts.

I highly recommend using the 3ds Max shortcuts available for every tool and command rather than pointing and clicking on their respective icons and menus and this is simply because shortcuts access the commands way faster than the point and click method. The difference might just be a few seconds but if you count the number of times you access any tool or command in 3ds Max by pointing and clicking rather than using the shortcut keys in one project, those few seconds add up to minutes or even hours.

Take note that the 3ds Max shortcuts are not case sensitive, so you can use either the lowercase or the uppercase and it would yield the same results.

The image above shows the front side of the Quick Reference Cube that came along with Autodesk 3ds Max 2009.  The other five sides of that cube show the list of default shortcuts of 3ds Max you may use while using the program.
