Making a photo-realistic orange using the Material Editor and Loft
Source - Hallofheads Media Category - Rendering
The purpose of this tutorial is to give you an understanding of lighting and texturing as well as a basic understanding of some lofting techniques. I can't stress enough about how important lighting and texturing is when modeling. These two things determine what your picture looks like. Will it look cartoony, or realistic? There aren't many tricks to texturing and lighting. You have to practice, practice, practice. Look at real world objects when modeling to see how the light shines off on object. Observe everything about it.

Making a Simple Window/Frame and Applying Textures
Source - Hallofheads Media Category - Materials
The purpose of this tutorial is to demonstrate how to make a simple window, and apply textures to it, as per request. Your wish is my command.....well not really, but.....anyway... The basic concept here is as so: We are going to build the window frame from a line. Actually a few lines. Then extrude it. We'll make each "board" seperately. Then we'll piece it together just like a real window frame. From the well make the glass and then apply the materials! FUN! Let's go!

Animating Cameras/Objects on a Path using TrackView
Source - Hallofheads Media Category - Animation
The purpose of this tutorial is to show you how to animate objects, cameras, lights and just about anything else along a path. This gives you a steady/smooth movement that is completely adjustable. Remember: After you've completed a tutorial, play around with the settings. Change things around and experiment. Get familiar with the entire process. If you don't learn WHY something works, and just learn HOW, you'll never be able to make anything of your own. And you'll never learn MAX. Nobody wants to see your demo reel of completed tutorials. So get in there and get your hands dirty! This tutorial was on request.

Modeling Cloth Curtains using Patches
Source - Hallofheads Media Category - Modeling
The purpose of this tutorial is to show you how to make cloth curtains from patches. For truly real cloth models (especially for animating) I strongly suggest a plugin like ClothReyes. It's less time consuming for you (even though it takes forever to calculate a scene!!!) and the results are fantastic! But for us poor folk, we'll use patches. This is another tutorial by request. On with the show!
