Sample Clip from Spaceship Modeling Video Tutorial for modo 501

A simple animation produced by Andy Brown from the model developed in this training exercise. Note: This tutorial is about modeling and does not focus on animation per se.

The modeling techniques used in this tutorial are not exclusive to spaceships; they can be used to create any vehicle, from a car to a plane or even a boat. What's important is the methodology, and how to organize and be in control of modeling a large project from reference drawings. The aim of this tutorial is to teach you a specific methodology with your future hard surface modeling projects in modo.


About the Spaceship Modeling Video Tutorial for modo 501

For this tutorial, we commissioned concept designer James Robbins to create an original spaceship design for the project, including eight orthographic reference images. James has been involved for ten years with the Stargate series and was just the man for the job!
