Modeling an Natural Environment

by a.cangelosi

In this 3D Studio Max video tutorial we’ll take a look on how we can model a natural environment with mountain, rocks and river, just using the “Displace” modifier, some simple primitives and some procedural maps nested in a precise way using the Composite map. The lighting/shading work flow will be covered in the right tutorial section and will be release this month.

      Hi Davide,

      can you try to “invert” the noise used for the displacement ? Try it and check the new rendering….
      If you need more help you can contact me directly a.cangelosi@cgcookie.com
