Modeling a Character in 3DS Max, 2nd Edition

In this chapter you’re going to build a leg for Callisto and attach it to

her torso. Since you’ll be building her boot using a different tech

nique later on, you’re just going to concentrate on the waist down to

the mid-calf area. You’re also going to use a new building technique

similar to a Boolean that’s more like a manual Boolean: You will

shape an object to fit a specific region (in this case the posterior)

lots of edge manipulation and vertex tweaking, as well as raw face

creation. First, make the main leg shape.
