Basic Modelling in 3DS Max: House (Part1)

So I decided rather than to just go over a bunch of tools and tell explain what they can do I decided to start making a model and then from there just explain what I was doing as I did it.

This is part one of several. After creating the model using textures from www.cgtextures.com I'll apply the textures and using the "UVW Map" modifier I'll scale them without actually doing any UVW Unwrap.

Is this a professional work flow, would pro designers use this method?

[votekick]

@DesignerLukeFX Pro designers would work from references, I'm kinda winging it.

But the whole idea of making a complex shape out of boxes and other basic geometry is.

a problem in 11:16 when i try to pull down, it appears weird shape, can you explain it easier?

[votekick]

@wucolin223 Well there are no polys on the bottom, so when I select by border it grabs the hole void of polys. You may find there's a break between verts so its grabbing more edges than you want, if that's the case to a weld on each of the corners and see if that helps.

Hope that helps because weird shape isn't a whole lot to go on.

@palpalandus You really need sound to understand it... at 7:58 the box that comes up when you click the square next to extrude in the modifier tab is what I changed... I've actually explained this in a previous comment. the little window that pops up doesn't get captures by my recording software.
