DESCRIPTION
This workflow is kind of a game changer for me. If your projects are anything like mine, and you find yourself needed to represent all sorts of intricate carved details, or if you just need a good way to add more details to your scene in general, this workflow is for you. Blender really comes in clutch with the perfect level of simple, but essential sculpting tools (and FREE of course). And, as always, 3ds Max has some key capabilities as well. The material baking tools there are just what is needed for the final result, and by the way, they are also very useful for several other things. If you aren't familiar with these tools they are definitely worth checking out.

In this video, we'll show you how to create realistic 3d models of architectural details with Blender and 3ds Max. We'll start by sculpting the details of the model, and then use the normal map from the sculpting process to create a realistic look for the details. We'll also use the material baking feature in 3ds Max to actually create the normal map using the material baking capabilities in Max.

By the end of this video, you'll have learned how to create realistic 3d models of architectural details using Blender and 3ds Max!

Overall, I hope you find something in this workflow that is useful to you. I'm sure there are also some ways to improve it. Let me know in the comments if you find it useful, or if you have suggestions for how it could be better.

Thanks for watching, and enjoy archviz.
