We’ll be tackling the final chapter of the Next Gen tutorial series with Joseph Harford for Max, Gavin Goulden for Maya, James Busby for LightWave, and John Hayes for modo, where we’ll be setting up our shaders and materials, and applying textures; moving on to set up a light rig and camera, and finishing with a final render. Each artist also finishes his chapter with a preview of what the character would look like in-game...more |

Welcome to Issue 46 – just 2 issues away from our forth birthday, can you believe? This issue has a running theme of hybrid creatures born of the cross between man and beast. You’ll find these beasties scattered through the magazine in all shapes, forms and sizes. We have a Bird-Man (this month’s cover feature) tutorial created by the very talented artist, Bruno Melo (p.65); we see two artists speed sculpt their way to creating Minotaur characters in the Speed Sculpting section of the magazine...more |

Welcome to Issue 43 – and what an issue! We’ve gone absolutely ZBrush crazy this month and have not one, but three great tutorials using this software to create all manner of fantastic sculpts! The reason for the ZBrush craze this month is because our gothic church interior tutorial series, for 3d Studio Max, Maya, Cinema 4D, LightWave and modo, dips into the creation of a gargoyle for the scene...more |

Welcome to Issue 42, coming to you from a snow-covered England (woo-hoo!). This month sees the start of yet another great ‘super series’ in 3dCreative – this time we’re talking gothic church interiors, for which 5 wonderful artists will talk us through the principal techniques used in building a church interior. And to make things slightly more interesting, we also welcome a modo artist to the series, in the form of Robert Bergh. So to re-cap, that’s 3d Studio Max, Maya, Cinema 4D, LightWave and modo. Part 1 of the series starts on page 79...more |

This month, keeping with 3dCreative tradition, we have our two artist interviews, the first of which is with the one and only David Giraud, possibly best known for his work as senior character artist on Assassin’s Creed at Ubisoft Montreal, and who is currently working on the upcoming game based on the 3d science-fiction film directed by James Cameron, Avatar. Check out page 007 for our interview with David, and then, because one is never enough, flick to page 019 for our interview with movie monster genius Aaron Sims...more |
