Product Overview:
3DS MAX Foundations: Lighting & Materials is a video tutorial kit that covers lighting and surfacing techniques under the 3DS MAX platform.

The topics covered range from Scanline rendering to Final Gathering and Global Illumination using Mental Ray. Various examples explore several surfacing techniques to generate intricate material networks, ranging from Procedural mapping to masked Photoshop texturing.
