Digital Tutors - Complex Surface Modeling in Rhino

Duration 4h 31m Project Files Included MP4

Throughout these lessons we'll focus on a process-based approach to the creation and manipulation of

complex surfaces in Rhino. While quickly creating these surfaces is relatively easy, doing so in a way that

we can precisely control the geometry will give you the skills to approach this work with much greater

confidence and accuracy.

We'll also review numerous time-saving techniques for building and editing our geometry, allowing you as a

professional modeler to improve the speed and efficiency of your work.
