This week’s show is up! I’m not feeling well, so it’s a quick one. We’re looking at how you can create a road in 3dsMax using the spline tool. What makes this technique special is that we’re UVW mapping the spline so that we can tile a material over the length of the road. All you need is a simple street texture!
How to paint a Landscape
Small tutorial which will enable you to paint in Photoshop a basic landscape which could be thereafter detailed
Making of Stranded
“Some of you may remember that I wrote a tutorial about painting basic landscapes with Painter in Issue 24 of 2d Artist. Well I was also recently asked to write a “Making Of” for one of my more matte painting style image creations, “Stranded”, which was also handled in Painter.”
Airbrushing the landscape
“Welcome to my tutorial on how I painted the landscape/waterscape Desirable thirst. The tutorial works like a walkthrough/step-by-step guide. I will not explain in detail how you should paint the different parts in the painting.”
Painting a Landscape
“In our first image, we want to start on the landscape with our basic colour palette. Ideally, I like to start off with my background layer first which would be in our case, the clouds. So here I’m going to think about what colour scheme I wanted for the image, something cold, warm, hot, or dark .”

“After Ben from 3dtotal contacted us, Sebastian and me sat together brainstorming of what Scene we want to create to represent the new Texture CD Vol. 10. Since it was about Plants and Trees, it was near that we did a landscape scene. Sebastian wanted some water in, I wanted leaf’s flying around. At first we started with the main landscape shapes, the position of the water, basically the main scene layout.”
