I recently explored modifiers in 3DS Max and was able to create some interesting things on my own. There is a wide variety of modifiers to use and they are all very useful. I used a few different modifiers on each cube besides the edit poly modifier. I used push, displace, chamfer, ripple, noise and bend. Modifiers such as chamfer, bend, and push were more simple and created smaller changes, while ripple, noise, and displace created more obvious changes to the cubes. As you can see in the image, the leftmost cube and center cube were most drastically affected, while the furthest cube and the cube in the top right had more simple modifiers applied.

Recently, I started working in a software for 3-D modeling, known as 3-D Studio Max. I have had to learn how another new software works, and I'm trying to get better at it. I wanted to research keyboard shortcuts that might be useful for getting quicker in 3-D Studio Max. Some keyboard shortcuts I learned were toggle snap and select object. When you want to select an object, it is not very convenient to click the selecting button, so you can press 'Q' to switch the cursor to select object. The other shortcut turns on and off the snap for the 3-D grid. This is useful for me because I like to be exact and consistent. By pressing 'A', you can easily toggle the snap on and off. The last keyboard shortcut I learned was select and scale. By pressing 'R' you can scale what you have selected.
