Description Yes, I realize there are a few glitches, but you should still get the idea's presented, Im toooo tired to code or fix anything else. I also realize there is no music, due to the filesize and me having 56k internet access I couldnt add any, its already above 2mb, which takes long enough to upload (20 minutes.) I also cut some of the contents because of this, leaving only the most important stuff.

I cover in this tutorial:

-Boolean
-Latticing
-Polygon Modelling
-Reflections
-Chamfers

This is for beginners to study while learning 3dsm, a more advanced tutorial may come later. I decided not to make this a click here, here and here and have a absract model tutorial, because I feel that they misslead beginners, this tutorial is open ended, it shows you how the tools work, what they do and how to use them, I think that this will help people more than just doing a bunch of steps to create something generic.

Nah, I made this at my dad's house, but at my moms I have dsl, which is ssoo much nicer. Dont you HATE waiting for pictures to load, that pisses me off more than anything else, seeing like a smalll piece of it for 5 minutes, looking at all the details.

meta-lev In reply to toThePixel [2005-07-14 02:07:03 +0000 UTC]
