lighting for the iconic Le Mans C9 race car.
“This
video series is not just teaching people how to build a car,”

design lecturer at Tyne Metropolitan College. “It is also
teaching modo users how to create dozens of interesting yet classic
shapes that are useful to master for everyday production work.”
“The
demand for modo training materials has reached critical mass,”
said Brad Peebler, president and co-founder of Luxology. “We
are committed to meeting this demand so that modo users can have a
steady flow of professional quality training materials on a variety
of real-world topics.”

new training division is also leveraging the talents of members from
its ever-growing modo community. By publishing an array of helpful
tutorials and work studies on modo3d.com, Luxology is offering modo
training for a wide range of skill levels and interests. In addition
