3Ds Max Introduction - Fruit

3rd Attempt

Fruit

Simple sphere objects were converted to editable poly's and were manipulated by experimenting with the extrude tool, attempting to bend and shape the spheres to look like pieces of fruit.

3Ds Max Introduction - Snowman

2nd Attempt

Snowman

In this exercise, the elements were created using objects from the standard primitives toolset.

Spheres were created and manipulated for the body of the snowman, a torus object was used for the scarf and a coned object for the nose, and snow was added from the particle systems toolset.

Again an elementary attempt, though i feel this was slightly more successful.



3Ds Max Introduction - Castle

Introduction tutorial exercises using Autodesk 3Ds Max

- Attempt 1

Castle

This was the first time i have ever used this piece of software. My initial thoughts are that i am going to find it difficult. It was somewhat confusing to me maintaining the required control and patience levels, though hopefully this will improve with time.

In this particular exercise, i created 4 cylinders, 4 cones a box and a door in an attempt to create a castle (i'm not entirely sure this is what i would consider to be a castle) but it was an interesting introductionary exercise.
