| Welcome to the tutorials section. There are tutorials and informative (hopefully) articles on a few different topics. For the ones that are more instructional how-to tutorials, I have tried to include information on the prerequisite knowledge and user knowledge level required. These are generally all aimed at users of 3dsMax, but I'm sure much of the info can be translated to other packages as well.
If you have a question that you think would be useful to others if answered in tutorial form then just email me (link at top of page) and let me know, and once I have some free time, I'll write up a tut :)
