3ds Max Tutorial - Modeling a Hexagon Screen

Software : 3ds Max
Level of Difficulty: Intermediate
Description : This 3ds Max video tutorial covers how to model a parametric screen constructed from hexagons. This technique is pretty straight forward. We start with a 6 sided nGon then uses a series of modifiers to create the lattice work. This tutorial does not get into rendering just how this geometry can be quickly modeled while maintaining parametric relationships for things such as the size or the members, the size of the opening, and level of variation in the pattern.

3ds Max - Hexagons with Classic Mesh Smooth

Software : 3d studio max
Category : 3d Modeling
Description : This Tutorial covers how to turn your mesh into Hexagon poly’s. This is a technique I learned from Toru Hasegawa while we were in school together at the GSAPP. You essentially triangulate a quad poly surface then collapse the triangles to have hexagons.
