MACE Tutorial - Part 1 - Block out - 3Ds Max 2020
Follow the first two out of four chapters for free: the block out and the ZBrush highpoly course!
This is the first chapter of the MACE tutorial where we set up our reference image and then create a block out version of the mace. This model serves the purpose to have a base mesh that we will import to ZBrush.

Your videos are an inspiration. Really love the content you put out. Keep up the good work!
Thanks man! Appreciate it :)
I'm literally waiting for free time so I can take your classes
Thank God for people like you Tim :) Just went and renewed my student licence so i can get started with your tutorial and try and get back into modelling again :) I will be buying your course when I'm ready to start following it :)
Thanks man :) Appreciate it and glad you like the tutorials!
Sir Tim awesome lecture for modeling concept thanks a lot keep it up:)
thank you for this tutorial
Yeee. He's back.
This is great! Ty!!
So glad to see another tutorial from you Tim. I can’t say how much your time and effort means to me. Also how do you keep the “edit geometry” window on the side like that? I always have to scroll down and it takes a lot of time out of it when I follow your tutorial. Please let me know!
Hover your mouse to the edge between the command panel and the viewport, hold and drag it to your left, it will divide the command panel to 2 columns.
@@WehrmachtSoldier95 Sweet, got it now. Thank you for your help!
@@justlikesang Sorry only seeing that now but yes that's how to do it and certainly better what way :) OR if you have two monitors you can also plug the tools menu out and have it on the second monitor.
Hello Tim, amazing tutorial! I have one slight discomfort. When i press Alt+X to make my object transparent, in the new versions of 3ds Max 2021+, the object is not transparent enough for me to have a good view of my reference image. Is there a way to make my object more transparent with alt+x, without reducing my object's visibility from object properties. I didn't have this issue on older 3ds max versions. Can you please help me? Thank you!
Thank you so so much for such valuable information! Would your tutorials be suitable for 3Dmax & zbrush beginners? >

Great
thanx
master
is it just me or is it easier to see you xray veiw than my own hahaha. Is there a way to make it more transparent. Find the image hard to see through the object. And thank you for all the tutorials
Cool. But just wandering if theres a special reason u didnt just use lathe for your main body?
Hi Chamferzone, I am new to modeling and was curious if this blockout would be considered a low or would you have to retop it by hand?
i have the same question...is this model a low poly? i think that is a mid or high? well im a junior...
cool
Is it possible to follow along the 3ds max parts in blender?
do you use a graphics tablet master tim?
Hello Playonce, yes I do! Please make sure to watch the beginners guide in which I mention it at the beginning and also which one I use kzhead.info/sun/d5uDiLufpn-al5E/bejne.html
Hi! this looks very promissing, but i get stuck right in the beginning. when i try to drag and drop the image i get stuck as it asks me to drop it as viewport background or environment map and nothing happens. Can someone help me?
7:04 can someone explain to me why they're detaching the rings for the spikes as clones rather than just doing an extrude from the main body?
Hello, can you renew the reference visual link. I can't wait to apply..
Hey, hmm.. weird it works just fine for me? I uploaded it again here for you i.imgur.com/oBq5QSz.png
Im making this mace on max 2022 is it ok to model it in 2022?
can we have the mass blueprint plz ??
Oh damn! I am sorry I haven't even noticed it until now that it was missing in the description. Let me add that yes!
@@ChamferZone Thank you ! in my case I modeled the block from a screen shot yesterday (I have a good level with 3ds Max but a low with Zbrush). When the high poly sculp part will be completed, I would buy the continuation of the tutorial and that of the sword to approach the organic part of Zbrush and discover Marmoset Tools. In any case it is really an extraordinary job and I learn a lot in a very short time, your classes look very effective ! (Excusee my English level, i also improve it at the same time ahah ! )
Приятел, направи малко по-лесни нещата следващия път. Иначе good video!
