3DS Max Car Modeling Modeling 01

[@swan3d]

I've watched a million 3DS Max modeling tutorials, there was always at least one thing I didn't know Thanks for the great tutorials

[@paulneale]

I think that is the same for all of us as there are so many possibilities that no one person can know them all.

[@none53]

Paul, i have to say this, these tutorials are gold. Keep them coming, that's a big help to everyone's future.

[@charleshaneyjr315]

Your explanations are so appreciated. I'm a late in life beginner, but your video is so much more appealing than the discouraging videos that are out there. You've made this so approachable it makes me not want to give up.

[@TheDeathoxide95]

Love your tutorials

[@keithyakouboff8755]

Nothing is working right on my end. The ribbon's not showing the menu options yours is, I do not get a "create" menu option when I right-click, and for some weird reason, the polygon I did manage to draw (via the rectangle creation tool), will not allow me to move the vertices in a freeform fashion. I.e., I can only move them by moving their manipulator axes controls. GGRRRRRRRRRR

[@paulneale]

I added the main menu bar to my quad. It is also at the top and in the create panel.

[@keithyakouboff8755]

@@paulneale Could to find any menu options that allowed me to set up the ribbon the way you did, with the options showing that you have in the video. Right-clicking does not bring up a "Create" submenu. The Create menu does not seem to have an option for me to simply draw a polyplane in place. So, I made a rectangular plane and then converted it to an editable poly.

[@paulneale]

@@keithyakouboff8755 I dragged the ribbon and placed it on the side of my Max that is all. All the tools can be dragged and docked where you want them.

[@paulneale]

You have all the same tools I do in the ribbon. Just keep looking. I don't have anything else loaded that you don't already have.

[@therealyunix]

Thank you for the tutorial can i also make the car low poly?

[@paulneale]

I'm sure you can. Just remove the subdivisions.

[@nfrancisj2122]

Thanks!

awesome

[@kurtv6281]

whats your opinion on Blender for this type of work?

[@paulneale]

Don't know it well enough to comment. I'm sure you can do similar things. I don't think their smart extrude is as robust but it is all about how well you know your software. I use Max as it is the most used software and I can find the most work using it.

[@jackspratt4343]

How do you just create a Polygon ? I have a plane / sphere etc. but no polygon.

[@sheogorathmadgod3447]

create a box, then right click on box-> convert to edit poly. then go into polygon mode(press 4). Edit poly is on its own a very different way of modeling so see some basic tutorials first.

[@jackspratt4343]

Why do you create a box then delete it ?

[@paulneale]

Turn your sound on and listen to it.

[@rahuljay5011]

yes but for the sake of it can you please explain sir why use the box under the chassis of the car? Please explain @paulneale

I'm sorry but thats not how you model a car.

[@paulneale]

Bold statement without any follow up. Why? What is the better way. Where is your tutorial on how to do it "right"

He’s a verified international trainer who’s been working in the industry for probably as long as you’ve lived. Go see his other videos he’s insanely experienced.

[@M45-k9g]

The car has beautiful clean topology , identical to the reference, I don’t see the issue in his methoods

[@vernpenrod7578]

I have been modeling cars for years just for fun. I find it very therapeutic. I started with box modeling and then learned to drag out planes. Both work, but this method creates far superior results and I can pay more attention to details rather than spend so much time "fixing" things that aren't straight.. Thanks for sharing all of this sir!!

[@3dmiracles-g1r]

too bad everyone is moving to Blender nowadays....

[@paulneale]

Hahahaha, or so it appears. Stop drinking the cool aid and start learning your craft on which ever software you want.

@@3dmiracles-g1r So you posted this on here because it makes you feel good trying to derail my KZbin channel and hard work? I will be sure to pass on your words of wisdom.
