In this tutorial we'll use 3D Studio Max to build some organic mesh from a simple sphere using noise modifiers and procedural texturing for a monster like skin. It's a quick tutorial but it has some cool tips.

Awesome tut's as usual! I like this one particularly becuse strangely enough I sketched something similar but it was stringy membranish looking. Where would we be without you Andrew?! Love it keep'em coming!
just saw the Star Trek trailer 2 (http://www.apple.com/trailers/paramount/startrek/large_trailer2.html) and I think you were involved in the VFX. Though your name is not in the credits, but you have established a working relationship J. J. A.
cheers!

Thanks for the Tutorial!
Any hint on how to accomplish the seamless loop we see on the final clip?
Thanks again.

Hey Andrew,
Do you have a brother who can do what you do, but uses Cinema 4D instead?
I'm a mac guy and don't see 3D Studio Max and a PC coming my way anytime soon.

Yes! Can't wait to try this one out. Almost what I was looking for today. Now I just need to know how to composite it into live video. Like a face extension or something.....

Sweet. Another thing that made my day (The first was the Pro Scores announcement and its freakin' jaw-dropping wallpaper). I'm going to sleep peacefully tonight with so much to do and to look forward to.
Awesome as always. Quick question Andrew will we possibly be able to learn the 3d text twirling in the bullet promo? The scene I'm referring to is when the 3d text spins fast to reveal "Advanced Compositing to 3d and AE Integration" The camera angle is like a wide fish eye lens and the texture and lighting is amazing. Any thoughts?
Thx

I have this site on my startpage and nothing make me giggle with glee then to see a new tutorial. Thanks Andrew!
I'm still itching to press "Add to cart" on the new dvd. I have a deadline for a shortfilm coming up in a month, any chance it will be ready by then?
