This is the state of mind you want to achieve, and you can only get yourself there by constant, persistent dedication.īefore we get to it, a small plug - whether you’re an experienced 3D artist making the switch to 3ds Max or a total beginner, at some point, chances are you’ll need some extra rendering power from a reliable and affordable online render farm.
Ideally, if you can make the time, you will immerse yourself so completely in 3D modeling, lighting, and texturing that when you step up from your computer and look around at ordinary objects, you will not be able to help yourself from thinking about how those objects would be modeled in 3D, how their textures would be made in 3D, how a certain lighting effect would be created in 3D.
Did I mention that you have to work at it every day? This really is essential. If you follow tutorials that build things that you are interested in, you’ll be more likely to stick with them and work on it every day. I am not recommending any specific tutorials. After you’ve got a grasp on the basics of 3ds Max, I recommend that right from the beginning, you follow along with tutorials that focus on modeling something you’re interested in. Almost any tutorial will begin with a walk-through of the interface. The first thing you’re going to want to do is to learn the very basics.
You must also understand and accept that the first part will be the most frustrating - and the least rewarding.īefore you run off and start looking for tutorials, here is an outline for you to use as a guide. You have to play, and play, and play every day until you have enough muscle memory that when you hear a tune or see the notes written, your fingers can reproduce that music without you even thinking. You can’t simply sit back and watch tutorials - you must PLAY along. I compare learning 3ds Max to learning to play the piano.
