Learn to 3D Model ANYTHING with 3ds MAX: Beginner Tutorial

Have you ever wanted to learn to make your own 3D models? Do you think the software is too complicated and scary? Well, this tutorial is meant to bash your way through the learning curve of one of the most complex 3D softwares around: 3ds MAX! It's surprisingly simple, once you get the hang of it!

After this tutorial, you'll gain the foundation you'll need to 3D model just about anything. Many 3D artists around the globe earn a living by creating 3D models for games, movies, architecture and product renderings, and more! So it's a great skill to have, even if you want to experiment and make your own 3D art to share with your friends on Instagram ;)

If you haven't done so, check out the "3ds Max Beginner Crash Course" video here:

I'll continue this beginner series with a video on basic render setup for lighting, texturing, and cameras. Also, we will take a deep dive into rigging and animation techniques in future videos to come.

Honestly once explained it's fairly intuitive. Thank you for breaking it down so nicely for us newbies! Can't wait to play with the full version

I must say your tutorials are the best ones for actually understanding how 3ds max works as a complete beginner and you explain it in a way that it actually makes sense! Thank you so much for creating this content and putting effort into it!

Most of the other ones explain it just in a way if u follow certain steps - u get this result, without actually explaining the core of the steps/process. With your tutorials you actually learn how to use the tools, rather than how to do certain product/get certain result.

Once again, thanks a lot, you saved my day! (or more of a one-month project :D)
Looking forward to more 3dsmax tutorials!

Been searching for some tutorials on 3ds max and came across yours. Honestly, straight forward and informative description of what you are doing in the scene. So helpful! It might be 2024, but these are still hugely accurate. Thanks bro! You are an absolute artist!

Been working with Max as an exhibition designer for about 7 years now and I still picked up a few little tricks from this video, so thanks for that. Never had the time to model a chair (we download them for time saving purposes), but it was interesting to see the process. Will come in handy at some point I’m sure. Great video!

This tutorial is very good and the way you captured/made it was so natural. So even though it's old and you probably won't see this but still; thank you for this video. I learned a lot and I'll continue to watch other videos of yours and learn more.

[diyartcollege]

Amazing tutorial. Thank you very much!

[Guttalaser]

Your basic and crash tutorials are one of the BEST on YT Man! Period! I'd like so much something like that about the Material Editor (covering UV mapping, shaders, diplacement, bump... etc) and something about the render settings (wich one use... drivers setting... hardware and the relation between the renderer and some special materials). Whit your teaching approach... i know i'll can understand the easy way all the potential of those tools.

[Izexv]

Still so helpful video you are really a good teacher im looking forward for more of your tutorials (:
