Hey everybody, I hope you enjoyed this tour of Modo 401. We did all kinds of really cool things and learned quite a bit about most of the tools in this application. Of course, there's far more to it than what we were able to cover but that's pretty much how all these applications are now. They give you hundreds and hundreds of choices and it's up to you to find the workflow that suits your needs. Well, we talked about how to do all kinds of things with Modo, from the basics like talking about the coordinates of 3D to navigation. We even talked about the interface and how to use the Viewports and the Workplane to draw things in any angle. We talked about how to change the Preferences and also the Lists and the Editors that you could use so that you can customize Modo to your liking. Of course, I also warned you guys to be a little tiny bit careful with that because with great power comes great responsibility and you could mess up just a tad. I've done it a few times myself. We also talked about how to use the shortcuts like the Pie Menu, the old Ctrl-1, Ctrl-2 and so on. We modeled some basic things like this NFL Logo, which was kind of cool. So we talked about how to apply Surfaces, Textures, Volumetrics and how to add Keyframes to make our own animations. We also talked about ways to work with geometry, to add to geometry, to reduce geometry and to do some subdivision modeling. Also talked about the Hair Tools and how to style hair, create fur, like bees and also talked about the importance of Materials and how they can quickly make your models look great. We also talked about how to use the great sculpting tools and how they can really speed your workflow up. We also talked about how to create textures in not just Modo but also in Photoshop and exterior applications like 3D-Coat. I talked about Maps and how they're important to your workflow as well, such as Stencil Maps and UV Maps. We talked about Lighting, Rendering and how to get your stuff out of Modo so that you can have a finished movie or a sequence of still images. And last but not least, we created a couple of cool projects like this NFL Logo, a rocket ship and talked about how to build a simple IK Chain. So guys, on behalf of Virtual Training Company, I hope you enjoyed this tour. Take care and I'll talk to you later.
