Model a vase, for beginners

Christopher Tyler Sep, 14th 2015 0 Comments
This modeling tutorial for beginners further demonstrates how to use polygon modeling to generate a subdivision surface object resembling a vase type object. It helps to give a sense for how Design 3D approaches the manipulation of polygons, in addition to showing how active grids help to control the modeling process.

Model, UV map and apply a bitmap label to a wristband type object

Christopher Tyler Sep, 14th 2015 0 Comments
This modeling, UV mapping, and texturing tutorial shows how to model a simple wristband type object using polygon modeling and subdivision surfaces. It then walks through the process of UV mapping it so a texture can be applied in a controlled and precise manner.

Working with Direct and Indirect light

Christopher Tyler Sep, 3rd 2015 0 Comments
This tutorial is designed for those new to Design 3D who want to know the difference between direct and indirect diffuse illumination. It also shows how to control parameters which influence these lighting types in Render dialog. It specifically looks at the Lighting, Shadow and Detail panels, covering Raydiosity Bounces, Cache Hits, Adaptive Shadow Sampling, and Anti-Aliasing parameters as they relate to direct and indirect illumination.
