3dats Books : 3ds max for architecture visualization

I have been doing architecture visualizations for ten years now and there were no books to learn it when I started out doing it but now there are dedicated books on it depending on your skillset . See a brief review on it from http://www.cgarchitect.com

3DATS 3ds Max for Architectural Visualization Books Reviewed
By Jeff Mottle



For years there has been very little coverage of production techniques as they relate specifically to visualization, so his new books are certainly a welcome addition. His first book came out a couple of years ago and was called 3ds Max 8 Architectural Visualization. The two most recent books that have released continue the series in the form of a Beginner to Intermediate book, built upon by the just released Intermediate to Advanced book. If you look at the book titles themselves, you will note that the beginner to Intermediate version was based around 3ds Max 2008, whereas the Intermediate to Advanced covers 3ds Max 2009. However, don’t let the appearance of being outdated affect your decision to look at this book. Both books were originally slated to release for 3ds Max 2008, however the unexpected release of 3ds Max 2009 by Autodesk, forced the third book to be updated last minute and thus renamed. Both titles are relevant today and should be for several years to come at least. The only updates cover changes made to mental ray as well as a few UI updates.

Anyone interested in architectural visualization as a profession should definitely pick up these books
