Cheetah 3d Modeling Tutorial

Note: Learn 3D with Cheetah 3D includes many color illustrations, so a color-capable book-reader (such as the iPad, Color Nook, or Nexus 7/10) is strongly recommended. Note that one of the popular free ereader apps for Android has problems rendering the book, but there are better (also free) alternatives. This teaches you the basics of how bones work in Cheetah 3D.

Learn 3D with Cheetah 3D 6 is available now from Lulu.com for $19.99. It is also available in the iBookstore, and from Barnes & Noble's Nook store. (It is no longer available for Kindle owing to Amazon's atrocious royalty policy.) The Lulu version is in DRM-free ePub format.

If you're interested in trying out Cheetah 3d, you can get it from the Cheetah 3d Website or the Mac App Store.

This forum thread is for suggestions as to the book's content.

This mini-site also collects together many of my contributions to the Cheetah 3d community (outside the forums).

Below are some sample pages from the first edition as displayed in iBooks. (Second Edition looks similar, but has been somewhat reorganized.)

Note that ePub and Nook books can be read on almost any device, Adobe Editions only works on desktop computers, and iBooks only works on sufficiently modern iOS devices. I do not recommend trying to read this book on an i-Ink device — it is heavily reliant on color graphics.

Stats for the Second Edition

• 81,000 words
• 661 images
• 16 tutorials (some long, most short)

What's Covered in the Second Edition

• All new features of Cheetah 3D 6 (although I plan to add more detail over time)
