This tutorial is designed for beginners who have some experience with 3Dmax and Editable Poly object. In this tutorial you will create a jaguar statue using polygons. Finally you will create a gold material and a simple lighting setup for the statue.
Modeling
1. Create a Plane object in the Right view. Set Length and Width Segments of the Plane to 1 and convert the plane to Editable Poly. Move the vertices of the polygon according to picture below.
A four sided polygon
2. Activate edge sub-object mode and create 5 new polygons by copying edges (move an edge while Shift key is pressed down) according to picture below.
6 polygons around the neck
3. Add Symmetry modifier to the Editable Poly. Because of the Symmetry modifier the left side of the model is constructed automatically from now on. You still work on the right side of the model. The model should now look like in picture below.
