Introduction to Hard Surface Modeling

Overview

“In this lesson I am going to show you all the tools I usually use when making a model (connect, bridge, chamfer, loop, etc.) teaching each one with an example. We will also see how all these tools are assigned different keyboard shortcuts that allow me to use them faster. Finally, I will teach how to assign shortcuts to the tools so you can add your own ”

In this video lesson Victoria Passariello Fontiveros addresses the topic: Basic tools that I use in Max and Shortcuts, which is part of the Domestika online course: Introduction to Hard Surface Modeling. Learn the techniques and tools to make robots using polygonal-design programs like Maya and 3ds Max.

“BASIC TOOLS I USE IN MAX AND SHORTCUTS In this lesson I will teach you the basic tools I use in 3ds Max, for example, Connect, Bridge, Weld and I will also tell you about the creation of "shortcuts" To work faster. I show you. The first thing I'm going to do is create a plane. This is the right panel, Here you will find all the options and all the tools we will use. I will create a plan to start, I put it in 0.0.0 as usual. Pressing the letter G I hide the Grid. This is the Grid and I can hide it with the letter G. I return the plane to zero and hide the Grid. Okay, I convert it into Edit P...”
