Beginners guide to Architectural modeling in 3Ds max

Requirements

• Be able to use computer and 3Dsmax installed

It is specially designed for simplifying the learning process of Architectural modeling in 3Ds max.

This course will cover the essentials of Interface, View ports navigation, Converting 2D plan in 3D, Applying Doors & windows, Lights, Maps & materials, Animation and Rendering.

After doing this course students will be able to work in 3Ds MAX for converting 2D architectural plans in 3D structures for previsualization with confidence and can get maximum benefit from other free learning resources which are available all over the internet for free.

This course is offered with money back guarantee
