Digital Tutors – Destroying Urban Environments in NUKEX
English | Size: 3.88 GB
Category: 3D
What you will learn
“In this tutorial we are going to create a destruction scene using the great tools found in NUKEX.
We will be compositing a wide shot of a city to look like a scene of massive destruction. We will also go over how to work fast if it needs to get it done before a deadline. ”

Eat3D Low Res Character Production Constructing A Character For Next Gen Games-HELL
English | Size: 2,18 GB
Category: EAT3D
In this DVD instructor Adam Schuman walks you through the entire process of constructing a low resolution character worthy of any “next-generation” game. Follow him as he shows you his techniques in exporting the high-res model from ZBrush, reconstructing the low-res meshes, creating the UV’s for all of the meshes, baking out all of the maps (3ds Max and xNormal), creating all of the textures, using real-time viewport shaders, and rendering out the final for your portfolio. This DVD is geared to improve your workflow by helping you understand what is expected of professionals in the field today. [Read more…]
Digital Tutors – Quick Start to Modeling in Maya Volume 5
English | Size: 1,37 GB
Category:Digital Tutors
In the final volume of the Quick Start to Modeling in Maya, we’ll build on the concepts covered in all of the previous volumes. We’ve built small hard-surface props and set pieces, but in this volume we’ll build an entire character.
We’ll use what we’ve learned to this point to block in the different parts of the character and make sure they all fit together well. We’ll discuss character specific topics like animation-ready topology. We’ll use reference images in our scenes and talk about building organic shapes, in addition to the hard surface pieces. We will learn to model efficiently by only creating necessary detail and then mirroring it over.

Digital Tutors – Modeling and Rigging a Hydraulic Crane in 3ds Max
English | Size: 3,21 GB
Category:Digital Tutors
In this series of tutorials we will learn how to create a mechanical rig for 3D visualizations in 3ds Max.
We will begin from the concept of the crane, explaining the different parts and how a crane works.
Next, we will introduce the rigging tools used, and the limitations of the setup that a real crane has, all in 3ds Max. We will then model and texture every main part of the crane separately and assemble it all into a new scene ready to be rigged and refined. Finally, we will test out our rig with an animation and render it as a preview.

Digital Tutors – Architectural Detailing in ZBrush
English | Size: 1,05 GB
Category:Digital Tutors
In this course, we will learn teachniques for interior/exterior architectural detailing in ZBrush
Building and detailing environments can be a time consuming process. To finish your models, you might need to create texture maps, either derived from photos, procedurally generated or hand painted. Adding higher resolution detail, like bricks or stone, to your interior and exterior models can be challenging as well. ZBrush can make this process a little bit easier. We’ll start by creating a seamless brick texture that we can apply to our geometry. We’ll look at using the Projection Master to quickly add detail to our models. We’ll use Noise to interactively dial in some specific patterns, like a knockdown wall texture. We’ll also look at building individual elements using primitive geometry that we can then append to our model. Once you’re done, you’ll have a better understanding of some of the tools you can use to detail your environments in ZBrush and a few ideas to get you going.

The Gnomon Workshop – Realistic Skin with ZBrush and Keyshot
English | Size: 1,56 GB
Category: The Gnomon Workshop
Dominic Qwek covers how to create realistic skin for his creature designs using ZBrush, Keyshot and Photoshop. He starts off by using ZBrush to sculpt realistic skin details such as wrinkles, moles and warts. Dominic then uses polypaint in ZBrush to texture skin tones where he adopts a layered approach for realistic results. Using the GoZ plugin, he imports the polypainted model into Keyshot where he starts lighting and shading. KeyshotÆs translucent shader is explained, as well as its HDR lighting features, for photo-realistic and interactive rendering. Finally, Dominic shares his post-processing workflow in Photoshop to achieve the final image. [Read more…]
