In this session, Ted Boardman unlocks the secrets of lofting that allow designers and artists to take advantage of one of the most powerful modeling tools in 3ds max. If you could use more flexibility in modeling and need to make frequent changes during the design process, this class is for you.

You'll learn about:
* Methods to orient shapes on a path correctly, to control the direction of the lofted model, and to apply multiple shapes on a path, avoiding twisting or distortion.
* Powerful lofting editing features that allow you more flexibility for higher productivity and important control of the density of the resulting meshes for a balance of detail and efficiency not easily achieved with other modeling methods
* Special attributes of material application and mapping uniquely inherent to lofted objects that allow patterns to bend and twist automatically with changes to the model.
* Techniques to control application of materials at the 2D shape level for greater flexibility and to size pattern accurately on the lofted objects.
