3D

This week we have looked into 3d design on 3d max this secotion of the term we cover these four subjects to do with 3d design on 3d max:

TEXT

We were shown how to creat 3d text we did this by first clicking on the shapes tool and then selecting text we then clicked were we wanted the text and filled in the text box with the writing that we wanted to make 3d, we was also shown how to change the font, to make it go 3d we had to go onto modify then choose the option to extrude which made the writing 3d we could then pick how wide we wanted it.

TEXTURE

The way we was shown to change the texture of the peice was to go on rendering then material edit then compact materials, we then had to click on the colour option and click difuse then pick bitmap, you could then upload an image of a texture u have got from the internet and used that i found this facinating to use and i found it very life like when using it.

LIGHTING

For the lighting effects I found and clicked onto the lights button, then clicked target spot. I had to drag the lighting cone out from where the lighting was coming from and enlarge and position it untill the text i had produce had been lit to the way i wanted it to be lit.

EXPORT

The way we was shown how to export was the quick and easy way to do it , this was by cliking the kettle up the top to view are final productd then saving that image as a png format so that it wouldnt end up with that black background, we could then edit it all on photo shop.

PEICES

Below are some images of my final peices that i did on digital 3d max.

 In this peice you can use i used a golden texture for it i really like this peice andi am using it on my facebook website for the editing.

I really enjoyed using 3d max it is very useful and i know i will use it in the future for shure for some of my work i enjoyed creating new shapes and i feel i learn a great deal about 3d max and i cant wait to start doing larger products with this tool.
