Create Photorealistic Exterior Renders with 3ds Max + V-Ray

In the class, we will learn how to use 3ds Max and V-Ray like a professional architectural visualization artist. We will then use our new skills to complete the final project, which is to render a 3D building in an exterior environment.

Ever wanted to create computer-generated images? Join Jake Denham (of Luxury Visuals Academy) as he shares a complete process to create professional renders.

This class will introduce you to the workflow CGI Studios use to create exterior renderings for architects.

It is perfect if you want to learn the whole workflow or pick up some tips for using 3ds Max and V-Ray.
