Epiphone Les Paul Studio, 3d Studio Max project overview

[001Metallicarules]

Hey.I've got an epiphone les paul studio in ebony .. AWESOME GUITARE , seriously dont get fooled by the price or some stupid comments , great clean , great distortion , AWESOME HARMONICS. I play Metallica Lamb of god , Slayer , AC/DC , gun'nroses and.. ITS great for everything , as any 2000$ guitare , ( i use a boss mt2 pedal and a marshall mg15 ) my advice : if you are intermediate+ .. GET IT ! and btw , there's no difference in the sound between this and the standard..

I tought it was real looolz :) Incredibly awesome work and its worth the time it took

[Demarshmello]

Wow... Thats just amazing! Pretty sick bro.

[KiepzzGuitar]

I was working on an Explorer, but after watching this i deleted it ._.

[DeathMagneticX3]

Daaaym! Thats great! :D Puts mine to shame :) You're a very talented person well done :)

[Arvak777]

I was confused at first when i saw the guitar's head stock (and reading "this is my guitar" in the description) I saw the wire frame model and though "wait did this guy model the guitar or was that the model it self?!" Looks amazing, keep it up!

[Orannnnis]

Do you remember how long it took to do this?

[altus2]

@Orannnnis Few months, as I was making it with few weeks breakes.

[noxmediasoftware]

great work, congrats my friend! : D

[Bhanu2468]

this is awesome.! could u please do a tutorial for this or upload some close up shots for a better view of edge flow . actually m trying to create it on 3ds max .but i didn't manage the edge flow like u ....please help me ..thank u.!!

[lkh19871987]

for still image, try out a software called Hypershot! real great texture quality, simply import your built model into it and render.

for moving image, try out Hypershot :P

[whitescape]

excellent model!

you could have used reflection cards to spice up the reflective black body.

[FSXHD92]

holy fuck that is really cool 5/5

[ansh4you]

Totally deserving 5 Stars straight away

[Shifty3651727]

man that's sick.. how can you do that??

Regards.

[waronlinereview]

really good m8

[simond130796]

i felt kinda dizzy after the first part

[Ebanezzz]

say your vray settings on this scene

[altus2]

@Ebanezzz

Sorry I lost this scene a while ago, when my HDD crashed. Dont remember the settings, but you can find some on the internet. Google it.

[MEMO042044]

i thought you extruded a line for the big part but while its rotating in the edged faces status its clearly not a line . if im not mistaken its a Cylinder nice job .. :)

[altus2]

@MEMO042044

Ive used just faces to make this round shape of guitar body, then I copied the loop edge inside few times - that helped me make a little "hill" in the centre (body front is not flat).

[slash112solo]

oh my god...

I am now embarrassed at my one :P

Fuck it's so amazing and realistic...

[PCBOXER1]

lol u stilll need some skill to create 1 so if u created a guitar nice job :)

[slash112solo]

Heh, thanks man.

But you still have to admit... this guy could make a fortune with his skill.

[jeffotje]

Indeed :D

[fatharmonix]

i have done a lot of autodesk inventor and i think that most of it looks fantastic while some things like the knobs and thewhole headstock rnt so great but overall a great job man!!!

[zeldaglitchman17]

Wow this is really good! I almost thought it was real! Nice job!

[funny1hahaha]

like the song :]

[LumiRock]

can u make a quick tutorial how to model a guitar...u know just a quick one..!! Thanks v.much

P.S Nice Work...One of the best i ever seen..!!

[rooboy2222]

thats fantastic well done :)

[ljustaku]

10 stars!!!!!!

[Trrepseg]

Very good work!

[FAkuRAMONE]

really coool man!!

[lespaulultra712]

does any one knows where i can find a les paul supreme neck?

[DirtyMosha]

wow nice work man!

how'd you manage to space out the frets so well? i'm trying to make a bass and its the only thing thats got me stumped lol

[altus2]

Oh thats easy, Ive put image of the front of guitar as a viewport background, then I created one fret, copied it as many time as required and matched to this picture. I believe that is the easiest way. Hope, it will be helpfull.

[DirtyMosha]

i managed to work it out shortly after watching this vid, wasn't using a reference image and just working from my own bass :P

[altus2]

Yeah shure, any idea will do as long as it looks good. Send me a render when you finish it :)

[DirtyMosha]

i will do :)

so far not looking anywhere near as good as yours lol, but meh, i'm still learning ;)

[Kavanaghness]

No life.

[numbchucking]

Nice job! I modeled a bunch of guitars too!

Cheers!

[koolzombie]

How did you model the strings? Are they renderable splines or are they just cylinders? I'm having a hard time modeling them!

[altus2]

I used renderable splines with bump map (to add little detail on them). It's easy to model them, as it is just straight line.

[Ciltoris]

Please make a tutorial for us all,

[azelastino]

Very nice work. about how many hours a day would you input into this project?

[wahdanmauli]

man, you're good, please make one tutorial for us

tnks

[adm6166]

what method did you use in making the body?

[altus2]

Everything was poly modelled.

[HeroicHereticsHH3]

Too real, haha, extremely good, by anychance your a good rigger, do you think you can make characters? (Master Chief)

[BigRockeur]

bravo pour le 3D, il est excellent !!

J'aime aussi beucoup la guitare puisque c'est celle que je m'acheterai d'ici 3 mois!!

Yo a tous les "Epiphonistes" !!

[IllELLIOTT06]

Nice Work!

What was you Poly Count?

[spencer132]

how long did that take? ive tried to make guitars in 2D and its taken months

[SideEffectt]

hey man this came out really nice!

really clean sub-d mesh. I'd like to see some more closeup views with edges on. Your lighting is killer too! I also loved the materials on the knobs. Are those 1 mesh or layered meshes with some materials.

Excellent job man!

[gnr1406]

man, you're good, please make one tutorial for us

tnks

[rishigautam500]

ohhh myy gooodddd i dont think people realize how long this must've took you

[gojkoubiparip]

Best 3d Guitar on youtube ! ! !

[LLOYD3D]

Very nice!

[altus2]

Thank you! :)

[nvry]

Hello!My name is Andrew and i liked your movie and i want to know how to learn 3D Studio Max..i have the program but it seems very hard...Photoshop is like a small kid.Maybe you'll find a way of helping me.Thanks!

[altus2]

There is lots of tutorials on the internet for 3ds, just type "3d studio max tutorial" in google.

First start from learning how to build a proper mesh for you models, watch how others are doing it.

Good luck :)

[moleman1961]

Ready to pick up and play! Stunning!

[sintechline]

is it real?? :S  xD realy good work.

[CMDesign]

Great job, man!!! I just think it would be better with colors but you do what you want if you like it this way

[Maskud]

omg

[JohnTheGodOfBiscuits]

Thats really really good

[SierraCinema]

real nice, what did u do to make the strings

[altus2]

It's just a line [create>shapes>line] with checked "enable in render" option. I add also a stripped bump map on it to look more realistic.

[john40pl]

tanx man..... i just now finished my course in 3ds max.... iam having a big problem starting it..... but now i will try to make a plan and work it out..... tanx again

[john40pl]

hey man really nice work........

iam planning to do a walkthrough project in 3ds max..... please give me some tips.... iam having problem starting the project

[altus2]

I think, first of all you should make a plan - decide how your project supose to look like and what exactly result you want to get. Make some concept arts/drawings of thing you want create (don't worry if you can't draw) - belive me it really helps :)

You should also watch some projects of other people. Especially, look closely how they compose polys on models.

I don't know how good you are in 3ds max, so I'm not sure are this tips gone be usefull for you :)
