better tutorials p;ease

#1

:scream: im no lw user so i dont have the tutorial background alot of u guys have and know how to bring into modo.
for us max guys looking to get to know modo some really down to earth tuts would be nice. i’ve done the soccer ball one. i dont like the sea fish alien thingy one cause it looks like too much work for such an ugly model. the pdf is like 200 pages. no way man.

i really dont think that the fish model is ugly at all, not to mention the point of it was to show you how to use some of modo’s tools and get oriented with modo, not to act as a ‘make cool stuff document’. u can use many lw modeling tutorials with modo.

u kinda misread my post. as I said earlier im not lw user never have been, never will be.I use max pretty much all the time. if i told u to learn modo using max tutorials do u think u could pull it off, probably not. learning from a lw tutorial it might as well be in chinese. i wouldnt know how to translate it into modo. i know the two are similar but theyre obviously not flat out the same program.

the fish is a stupid model. looked through the tutorial itself didnt see anykind of modelling skill in it. its also not an articulate model, could probably do the whole thing with metaballs.

so as i said earlier some explicitly made for modo tutorials, with totally new to 3d users in mind would not be such a bad thing. if u fail to see what im talking about pretend i’ve never used lw, cause that is exactly the case.
