  • DESCRIPTION

    Welcome to “3ds Max: Easily Create Stunning Realistic 3d Environments,” the ultimate course for aspiring 3D artists, game developers, architects, and interior designers looking to bring their creative visions to life with stunning 3d environments.

    In this comprehensive Udemy course, you will embark on an exciting journey into the world of 3D environment design using Autodesk 3ds Max, one of the industry’s leading software packages. Whether you are a beginner or have some prior experience with 3D modeling and animation, this course will empower you with the knowledge and skills to create breathtaking virtual worlds to enhance your renderings and add the final touches of realism.

    In order to build realistic environments, students will see various tools and workflows demonstrated, including 3ds Max tools and some additional plugins.

    Here are just some of the tools that we will discuss in-depth in the course:

  • V-Ray

  • Forest Pack PRO

  • Quixel Suite (Megascans, Bridge and Mixer)

  • Students will use these tools specifically to quickly create a 3d environment that is fully photorealistic, complete with photoscanned models, scatters, photoscanned materials, professional models and atmospherics. Students will also go over a professional post-processing workflow for environment scenes.

    WHAT TO EXPECT

    This is not an overivew course for 3ds Max (I have another course for that), but rather a course about unlocking 3ds Max using 3rd party tools to quickly create amazing 3d environments. Students will be surprised at how easily they can improve their scenes with proper knowledge of the tools and workflow. Below is a basic outline of what to expect:

  • Basic modeling of terrain in 3ds Max

  • Forest Pack PRO – all the settings you need to know to have complete control over your scene

  • Quixel Bridge – use Bridge to quickly and seamlessly import photoscanned content into your scene

  • Importing professionally made models into your scene to add realism (i.e. Evermotion models)

  • Quixel Mixer (coming soon) – Use Mixer to create photorealistic materials for your environment scene with photoscanned content

  • Atmospherics with both 3ds Max and V-Ray techniques

  • V-Ray Render Settings

  • Professional post-processing in Photoshop – add more atmosphere with V-Ray Zdepth channel, use Camera Raw filter, etc.

  • There is no better course on the internet for developing these specific skills, and they are essential to a professional workflow, and realistic looking renderings. Don’t overlook these advancements in rendering tools and technology.

    Join the course today, and take your renderings to the next level.

  • All course purchases get you lifetime, on-demand access to all course content, present and future.
