IMD I - SRC HOMEWORK DUE MONDAY!

SRC Project

Ok, now that we’ve learned some of the tools in 3D Studio Max lets put them to work with a creative project.

You’re going to design and model a Robot, Space Ship, or Castle (maybe all three!)

First you’ll need some reference information, images from other artists or from actual life. These images will help you add “real” details to your project. Collect images online (minimum of 20) and copy and paste into powerpoint or photoshop.

With your reference images in hand start sketching, remember you only have access to the simple shapes so build complex shapes from simple ones. You’ll be amazed what you can create with them. Draw you idea a couple of times, remember were working in 3D and you should draw you creations from different angles (top, front, and side are smart choices) When the sketches are completed show them to me, and get started in 3DS.
You’ll have 4-5 hours in lab to complete the assignment.

Happy modeling!

Mr.F
