In this 2 hour long beginner level tutorial, we will explore in detail the entire process of building a high-poly roof hatch in 3ds Max. We will discuss the modeling process in depth, including a variety of different poly modeling tools and techniques. We will also cover some of the more important theoretical aspects of high poly modeling, such as the importance of using support edges when working with subdivision, and also the use of proper topology when cutting holes into subdivided surfaces while maintaining a quad based mesh.

My name is Chris Tate, and I'm a 29 year old CG artist from Victoria, BC, Canada. I got into computer graphics around 2002, and like a lot of CG artist's I'm completely self taught. My main focus has always been modeling, but I am constantly striving to be as well rounded as possible, and have gained experience in the other areas of cg as well. You can check out some more examples of my work on my website http://www.christateonline.com.
