• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Video Tutorial: Wing modeling and smoothing

Nicely done! Thanks a bunch. Even though I've been Max/GMax modeling for nearly a decade, there's always something new to learn, and different techniques to try out. :icon29:
 
You are evil for the following reasons:

#1 - You're using MAX, which has all sorts of nice modifiers ... I dabble in gmax, which doesn't (it just takes a bit longer, after adding edit mesh modifier, then slice modifier, then edit mesh modifier, each time you want to "slice" the polygons.

#2 - In gmax, in about 15 minutes after watching your video, I've done something I haven't been able to in (x=# of years gmax came out) years of having gmax - create a credible basic wing shape.


#3 So THAT's what you can use the FFD modifier!!

#4 Note to self - ALT-X also works in gmax.

<grumble>


All kidding aside now (well, for the moment) - I am one not prone to video tutorials but I am glad that I ventured into these. They were clear in purpose, clear in delivery, and did not go into sidebars - you can also do this, etc.. - except on quick on screen notes.


Again, my sincere thanks for the presentations.
