This tutorial will guide you through the process of making 3D tiling background for use with web pages, your desktop, or any thing else for that matter. You will get to see the use of Blender and graphic editing such as Adobe Photoshop or GIMP. The tutorial will provide detailed explanation to cator to beginners.
If you are reading this tutorial, you are probably feeling like I did exactly one year ago. I had found this extremely interesting looking 3D application (which other users were raving about), but the user interface completely baffled me. I couldn't find the quit function (I had to kill the application instead of exiting it), I saw buttons that seemed to react differently each time I clicked on them and every time something interesting happened, I could not reproduce
Well, it's free, fast and stable. It can also be used for very complex models – it's much more suitable than GMax for example when working with large and highly detailed models – and it includes everything you might need to make mapping and texturing easier in one package. It can render and also 'bake' the results into the texture which means that highlights and shadows can be automatically generated, saving hours of work.
This text will provide a guide through the many Blender tutorials which should familiarize you with many modeling and some animation techniques in a quick way, without having to go through useless or repetitive tutorials. Furthermore, in addition you will have some small corrections to unclear tutorials.
The following describes objects as rendered in the Blender 3D View port or Render engine and how those objects appear when displayed in the Google Earth Application.
In general, modeling trees is a long and somewhat tedious undertaking. Usually, each tree contains thousands of individual elements. In many instances, trees are included in a model as an accent to the main focus adding a sense of atmosphere rather than being the main focus of the completed model itself. For this reason, many 3D software products include some sort of “procedural” modeling method of generating trees which eases the task of tree modeling. There are indeed a number of Blender python scripts available on the web that attempt to do this as well as many tree modeling applications whose exported files can be imported into Blender.
In this tutorial, we will use common box modeling techniques to model a frog.It's very easy to model.
In this tutorial we will examine the process of placing a Blender model into the Google Earth application. Google Earth provides satellite imagery depicting the entire earth and allows users to insert three-dimensional objects at specific latitudinal and longitudinal locations.
This is one of the most powerful 3D animation and creation tool out there. In this tutorial you will find yourself running into cryptic codes quite often. These codes refer to the keys you need to press on the keyboard and buttons on the mouse you need to press. They are pretty standard through out the Blender community.
Most of you are perhaps too young to remember the Beatles song “Yellow Submarine”. In this tutorial you will create a simple animated model of a yellow submarine.
In this tutorial you will find three types of . 1 Modeling Grasshopper, 2. Modeling a woman head, 3. Designing a room.You will find this as a complete tutorial for XSI modeling.
Well, it's free, fast and stable. It can also be used for very complex models – it's much more suitable than GMax for example when working with large and highly detailed models – and it includes everything you might need to make mapping and texturing easier in onepackage. It can render and also 'bake' the results into the texture which means that highlights and shadows can be automatically generated, saving hours of work.
This tutorial is to illustrate how you can get far along in the modeling process with just a few simple adjustments of an object’s geometry properties. This example is applied to ZSphere models, but the techniques can also be used with primitive objects.

For a long time, people have wondered how to cut holes through objects in ZBrush. Thanks to the retopology features in ZBrush 3, this is actually very easy to do. Yes, this ZBrush feature is a great way to create new topology over top of an existing model. But once you've learned the simple techniques in this tutorial you will also be able to use ZBrush 3 to change the polygons of your existing models. You don't even have to lose sculpting that you've already done!

This topology is composed of multiple Z Sphere chains, and was generated from the topology you will select.. These chains of Z Spheres defines the contour of patches, from which a 3d mesh is going to be generated.
For this grass tutorial you should have a general knowledge of
3D Studio MAX.
In this tutorial we will look at sculpting a skull using image planes. We will use:
Caustics are the term or the light patterns caused by light refracting through a glass object. For example, take a clear glass of water and set it out in the sunlight. The bright streaks and patterns you see are caustics.Beginning with 3ds Max , the mental ray renderer is integrated with the program. Unlike the default scan line rendered, mental ray can calculate photos to create Global Illumination (GI) and caustics lighting.
