Introduction
Lesson 1 of 4 3D Asset Production
Your journey through 3D Asset Production will begin with the basics of 3ds Max. Mihailo will take you through navigation, UI, commands, organization and terminology. You will then learn about three different types of professional workflows, and map out the project you'll be working on throughout the rest of the Course.
Retopology
Download a 3D model of any kind of object and do a retopo. This will help you get used to shortcuts, as well as understand topology and edge flow.
After this, find concept art or references to use for modeling in the next Lesson. If going without concept art, collect as many references as you can. These will inform you about what you'll be modeling later.

Lesson 2
Modeling
Now you can implement the knowledge you acquired in the previous Lesson and model your asset. You will set up your references, and take on the modeling process by first blocking and then detailing. After this, Mihailo will guide you through the UVing process and help you to prepare your asset for its transition to the next Lesson.
