Gnomon Workshop - 3D Look Development in MODO

In this tutorial, Andras Kavalecz demonstrates how to develop a 2D concept by Stephen Change into 3D using Modo. Andras will guide the viewer through the entire process from modeling, UV layout, painting textures, replicators, lighting, shading and rendering. The goals of this demonstration is to showcase Modo's "artist-friendly" and intuitive workflow and to share how Modo can bridge 2D concept art with 3D look development - empowering the 2D concept artist with the flexibility of 3D.
