Yesterday I decided to fresh up my 3D Studio skillz, since I haven’t dabbled with it in years, and every game developer should know *some* 3D modeling.

First I found an enormous resource of free models online, but most of them were for non-commercial use so I continued my search for some good tutorials instead. Though I kept a few of the models for use as placeholders till I get some 3D models of my own(or from my team) to work with.

Then I stumbled over 3D-palace[^]. They got tons of pay-to-learn tutorials, but also a wealth of free ones. The free tutorials are incredibly big and are grouped into Beginner, Intermediate and Higher Level.
Since I’ve dabbled in 3D Studio before, I went with intermediate and found the interesting “A Complete Sci-Fi dock” tutorial.
I didn’t get to start it off yesterday, since I found it just before I went to bed, but I plan to check it out tonight. So stay tuned for my impressions about it tomorrow!

I also found this neat site with tons of links to free 3D tutorials and 3D models @ CGlinks[^]. So if you’re like me and want to refresh your 3D skillz. Head on over and knock yourself out.
