Dear All ,

I am trying to create a scene where I will have 3 pyramids and a sphinx but I can’t find a tutorial that shows me how to model both the pyramid and the sphinx. Can anyone help me with tutorials???

Thanks a lot,

Go through this tutorial to learn the basics of poly-modeling; or any of the tutorials that come with Max.

Find appropriate reference material so you have something to base your model on and pull textures from.

If you want the quick, easy and costly route, check out a site like turbosquid and buy pre-made.

I recommend taking the time to properly learn software that required an initial significant monetary investment.

Hey Princess

Maybe consider buying a model from a site like turbosquid.com - I did a quick search and found a couple of good sphinx models:

Another great resource is the 3d Warehouse for SketchUp - there are loads of free models including at least one of a sphinx:

I agree with Demplo about learning how to model - but finding models online is a great timesaver!

Thanks a lot Tim for the sites but I was hoping to model it by myself but any way I tried to model the head of the sphinx and I hope anyone can check it for me and tell me if I am on the right track .... Please take into consideration that I am a beginner....

Thanks a lot,
