Introduction

Hi,

During my past two years of studying computer games design I have noticed that I have more interest in 3D modelling than other areas which we have covered, this has led me to research what 3D modelling software studios might use other than 3ds Max. During this research I have found that many studios use sculpting software such as Zbrush to create higher poly count models with more detail.

I would like to create a portfolio of high poly models which have been created in 3ds Max and refined in a sculpting software.
