MODO Shading and Texturing Fundamentals
This course will teach you the things you need to know when shading and texturing with MODO. It combines shading theory with practical application so that you can texture and shade with confidence. Software required: MODO v. 10.2.
What you'll learn
This course is designed to mix different approaches with a gradual increase in complexity. In this course, MODO Shading and Texturing Fundamentals, you'll learn how to combine shading theory with practical application while learning how to use MODO at the same time. First, you'll discover how to use MODO. Next, you'll explore basic shading theory and comparing various methods in texturing. Finally, you'll learn how to apply those ideas to project-based scenarios. By the end of this course, you'll know how to confidently shade and texture with MODO. Software required: MODO v. 10.2.
