      I believe autodesk licenses are non-transferable.

      Yeah. One cannot help wonder why. Non-transferable licenses don't stop piracy.

      @ scostumatu: fine looking image.

          Here is a good site to learn the basics:

          http://www.maxbasics.com/modeling-tutorials

          You can choose modeling or rendering for noobs.

          If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

            scostumatu that really is a nice render.

            Autodesk have sent an email around today offering upto Β£900 off the software, so may be time to bag a bargain...

            Always found Ramy's site http://3dsmaxrendering.blogspot.com/ to be a great source for when i transfer from sketchup to max.

                If I can muster up some new clients, that offer sounds great. I think the SU to Max (to Thea πŸ˜„) process could be a great work-flow!

                  heres another couple of images i produced out of my latest project. No where near perfect (modelling is a little out) and the garage/porch column materials too reflective... but you get the general idea πŸ˜„

                  let me know what you think

                    I'm wondering if one can buy 3dsmax second hand, maybe an earlier version like 2009 or 2010 at a great price? Maybe ebay?

                    with the export dae files Blender makes nice grass for free do all your standard build in SKP. then export to blender for some nice animations and rendering
                    just a cheep option from MAX3d

                      Where do you live? The European Union recently ruled that software is owned by the purchaser and can be resold.

                        Just small color correction and a little bit contrast. Hope you do not mind.
