Getting Familiar with 3ds Max - Beginner's Guide

Hello, I am Kenchuk, the lecture creator :)

This course is designed for beginners who are new to 3ds Max.

From Max's basic functions (move, rotate, copy)

Learn the basics of modeling, including learning core editing commands.

From basic functions to CAD drawing-based 3D modeling

We provide a structure that can be built step by step following the actual work flow.

* This course is recommended for these people

• Architecture/Interior design major learning 3ds Max for the first time

  
  

• Beginners who are familiar with SketchUp but find 3ds Max difficult

* Lecture structure

1. Understanding the 3ds Max interface basics

   • Introductory introduction to Kind, including viewports, command panels, and shortcut configuration

   
   

2. How to use basic objects and modifiers

   • Understanding Editable spline and Editable poly

   • Practice with core tools such as Extrude and Shell

   
   

3. Practical Drawing Modeling Practice

   • Import CAD drawings → Model structures such as walls, floors, and windows

   • Modeling based on drawings, using snaps, measuring dimensions, etc.

   
   

4. Modeling interior elements

   • Direct modeling of interior components such as doors and windows

   • Practical tips for setting up pivots, managing groups, etc.

   
   

* Course Features

• Focus on basic modeling, learning so you can move naturally to applications

• Drawing-based practice that can be applied to actual design

• Example files are provided for each lecture, making review and repeated learning easy.

The core of this lecture is to understand the 'principles and structure of Max modeling' .

In Max, not only the appearance of the model, but also the organization of commands and setting of pivots are important factors.

In this course, you will become fully familiar with these elements through intuitive examples and step-by-step explanations.

The course first studies the theory, and then repeatedly studies the functions through examples.

It is structured so that you can fully understand the function.

We learn so that you can remember it for a long time because you can apply the skills you learned right away :)

In addition, through practical training such as building walls and making doors and windows based on drawings,

You can naturally acquire the flow of implementing 2D drawings into 3D.

Sample files and drawings are attached to the learning materials, so please use them :)
