This video tutorial is designed for the beginning modo user who is serious about learning modo. The tutorial starts with modeling the watch using Subdivision surfaces and using techniques including Symmetry, Falloffs and Action Centers. Attention is paid to the important concepts of scaling and organizing the items you create. By the time the watch, strap and buckle are done; you will have a basic grounding in regular polygon, and SubD modeling techniques. The tutorial does not stop at modeling though. The following video segments show you how to pose the watch and set up a scene by introducing environments and lighting. You will then be introduced to creating UV maps and painting textures inside of modo. Next is the fun task of developing materials so you can produce a final render. It’s a complete project that includes everything you need, including texture maps, geometry and even the completed 3D watch model itself.

This video tutorial was developed for modo 203. Users of later versions of modo will find the tutorial useful, but will have to adapt some instructions to new techniques found in more recent versions of modo. Narrated in English.
