Features: This book primarily focuses on the theme of "techniques." It first provides a detailed explanation of how to draw construction drawings in CAD software, followed by modeling, material application, lighting, and post-processing techniques in 3ds Max. After completing this book, readers will be able to flexibly use both software tools. With further dedicated research, they can achieve the goal of creating high-quality renderings. The book emphasizes the integration of knowledge and techniques, making it highly readable. It is primarily written for professionals and individuals with some foundational knowledge, so basic explanations are omitted to allow readers to dive directly into the design topics and appreciate their intricacies. To facilitate learning, the book includes a companion CD-ROM containing all the scene files from the book's examples, post-processed renderings in Photoshop, and the full modeling wireframes and rendering results of all the book's examples, which readers can access at any time during their studies.
