Arch 427 Spring 2010 Class-05

This tutorial will look in depth at the Loft modifier. In 3DS Max the Loft modifier can definitely be intimidating with its endless list of parameters. That being said it is also a very powerful parametric modeling modifier. This tutorial explores lofting multiple shapes along a path to create a conceptual massing study of an elliptical high rise tower. This tutorial will also explore in more depth the edit mesh modifier using Soft Selection to create a modern lamp shape. Soft Selection allows you to push and pull sub-object levels of the mesh allowing the other parts to follow (based on the falloff  settings).
