More About This Title 3ds max 7 Bible
English
With a background in engineering and computer graphics, Kelly has been all over the 3D industry and still finds it fascinating. He’s used high-level CAD workstations for product design and analysis, completed several large-scale visualization projects, created 3D models for feature films, worked as a freelance 3D artist, and has even done some 3D programming. Kelly’s been using 3D Studio since version 3 for DOS.
