In this 3ds Max and AutoCAD tutorial we'll go through the steps of drawing and modeling a realistic landscape around a famous contemporary villa in France.

We'll learn the various modeling techniques used for elements such as custom trees, realistic grass and dynamic water. We'll also learn to use advanced tools such as particle flow to distribute proxies of high poly models, as well as plugins to grow plants in real time.

By the end of the 3ds Max and AutoCAD training you'll be able to create your own architectural landscapes at any scale or complexity with more ease, efficiency and confidence.
