Hey everyone,
This week we’re looking at how you can use the default 3dsMax Ink & Paint material to create a simple sketch effect in your renders. It works best for inorganic scenes like the thumbnail I’ve shown here. It’s a natural extension of last week’s video where we looked at how you can really juice 3dsMax beyond simply creating scenes and rendering them.

That would be a nice technique to be used for some Architectural concept renderings.
I wonder if it would be possible to make the lines more “wavy-like”. You know, to make it look like they were hand-drawn.

PS: Ok, checking the tutorial you prepared, I can see that you get a nice “lumpy” effect using a Cellular map. I guess that combining that with some Photoshop filters would provide me with the wavy effect I’m looking for.

Man I’ve found your tutorials on YouTube to be very useful & good, is there anyway to subscribe to the “Monday Movie” so that I can see when something new comes out?

Glad to help RPJ.
Chris; you can subscribe either through YouTube (there should be a ‘subscribe’ button near my name on the video post there), through feeds (if you’re using FireFox as your browser use the small, orange RSS Feed icon in the far right of the address bar, or you can check back every Monday (though sometimes I’m late with the movies). 😀
