Very Easy Furniture Modeling

In this post, you will learn to use the command Box, ChamferBox, to modify the box and to use the proper materials and proper lighting.
Let me show you how to easily and quickly model furniture.
First, we will model the armchair.
In this post, you will learn to use the Extended primitives, to edit them, edit polygons and to apply materials and lights and to renders.
First, go to Create, select Extended Primitives and use ChamferBox.
Give specific dimensions and cube radius of curvature.
The length of 1 m, width 1 m, and thickness of 0.3 meters.
Curvature radius of 0.1 m, also called Chamfer radius.
The dimensions alone can choose, it is important that it look good and in proportion. 

See the movie.

How to Model a Chair

This video shows how to model a chair in a simple manner. It was made on the basis of previous post Simple Chair Modeling. Here you can learn how to convert a rectangle and box in to editable poly, and how to modify polygons. Also you can learn to use modifiers extrude, hinge from edge, turbosmooth, copy, rotate and move objects.

Simple Chair Modeling

Chair model

 

First I drew a rectangle than rounded edges to it.
I converted it, to editable poly.

The obtained editable poly, I modified so that I extrude his side polygons.

I further modified the polygons so that I hinged them from edge for 60 degrees than extruded polygons so I got the legs are shown in Fig.

Following I copied these two legs, adding two cylinders to connect legs.

Similarly to legs, I did construction for the back and I got the following…

I drew a box with the two segments in length, width and height. 

I converted it to editable poly which I modified so I moved a bid, the side polygons.

On obtained form, I applied Turbosmoth modifier.

So I got a seat. 

I copied the seat and rotate it and I got the back.

For applying materials and lights there will be another post.

Introduction

This is the first post on my blog where I try to help those who want to learn to work in 3d Studio Max. On this blog I plan to periodically publish the works in 3d Studio Max. For every published work, I will give detailed instructions for preparation. All files in 3d Studio Max format and rendered scenes, will be available to blog visitors.
