The inspiration for this mechanical poly modelling DVD tutorial is game Workshop's Necron Monolith model. After an explanation of modelling a suitable base mesh, you are shown a plate-on-plate modelling technique, which involves adding levels of details to individual or multiple faces. The model is then refined in sections.
Rather than adhering precisely to the reference image, you're encouraged to think about the nature of the model itself and use your own artist judgements. The overall modelling workflow is more suited to beginners, as it becomes formulaic. The audio and video quality is good - a texturing and mental ray rendering work flow is included at the end.
Verdict
Will improve your non-organic modelling skills, and inspires you to create your own design.

The Crux dvd set was the best teaching course i have ever come across; Informative, explained clearly every step which was needed, and now i have the confidence to build my own. -

The APU Set, despite being one of the older sets on the site this set is still worth every penny. Not only do you get to build an APU following along with Cris but you also get to build an environment and the sentinel to shoot at! But you cant shoot without having a rig made but wait it covers that too! (admittedly I skipped a few of the easier sections because I'm not a beginner but everyone has their own level.)
The only bad point i would say (since nothing is perfect) is that its not entirely the same as the movie version but I believe this was for various reasons, the same goes for reference images, although there are many pictures on the web that can be used including those on the matrix website.

Because the more you know... etc. Anyway, we use the TSCC codec here - why? Because we do. Its a windows codec and its great for screencap and expecially fantastic for tutorials. You can get it here for FREE. Yep, free. Awesome. Install it and then you will be able to play our tutorials.
