- In this video we will be using Alias Autostudio 2020. You can also use Alias Surface for this workflow.
This series is to help you guys see what goes on when I make a car exterior inside a design studio. How I take the sketches and the engineering data and I merge it into one cohesive model. For this project we will be using Hanbin's BMW DTM design, his photoshop tutorial can be found here

I wish I could give you 10000 likes. Thanks a lot for these videos. Best alias tutorial channel so far. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Your work is stunning and your videos are fascinating. It’s clear that you’re a master craftsmen. Usually I struggle to watch a whole tutorial, skipping here and there. But I never miss a second of what you have to say. Thank you for these brilliant videos. They’re priceless.
Your insight and strategies into tackling complex modeling is invaluable resource to the surfacing community. Awesome video, thanks for sharing.
21:00 You're a freaking magician. Man you are so inspiring, using basic tools to acomplish anything you want. Keep it up!
Thanks a lot for your videos.I made a huge progress just watching your videos and now I achieve better result of modeling even in Rhino.
Appreciate you taking the time to make these videos, dude

I have watched this all series' every parts at least three times and still coming back and rewatching it all over and the more I get experienced in Alias the more I realise the things that is done here and the logic behind it. Very much appreciated, thanks Raymundo!
Really appreciate your tutorial ! You help my work efficiency a lot. Really love that you always talk about how you think and why you doing. It's very helpful. Best Alias teacher I have ever meet! Words are not enough to express my gratitude.♥️ (By the way, I think it's really worth to pay for that:))

our videos are like a revision to the work i do and it really helps me in understanding my workflow and how i can improve further...
waiting for the next video!!
Mr. Ray Is a good teacher. You can only be a good student to him if you experiment and practice his techniques. To be a good modeller is to be a good sketch analyzer
Thank you! Can’t wait for the next one :)
cant wait for the next parts. awesome videos, thank you very much mate
Very informative and talking about what matters, no nonsense approach. Awesome mate!!
Thank you for doing this, been looking forward to this vid. You are an inspiration!
I like your approch of modeling ! very interesting to me coming from subd modeling! keep going bro
Great! Thanks a lot for The videos ! I find your tutorials The best way yo learn how to model in Alias
nice video!!!
I´m not even using alias, I use rhino but still I find this tutorial really helpful just to see your modeling workflow!
HandleBar3D: makes triangle surface
Surface designers: we don't do that here
just learned that while being apprentice in automobile industry. its hard for following steps like strak people and engineers to use triangle surfaces because the controlling of those surfaces is very difficult, as the cv rows go to 1 single point in one corner. I used to make a 4 side surface and cut the half of it off with a trim command. Anyway I understand that for the design process this is not vital, but good to know anyway
Thank you for this showcase, you are one of the greatest guy on RUclips who explained Alias car modeling.Other guys just shows the starting point and final result.They skip transitions and guidelines CV's or surfaces.On one of your older video dedicated to Electra I left a comment regarding my Rhino learning(because Alias is best high-end tool but is not handy to me) there you recommend to me poligon modeling but that is not my type. Can I send you my wip project and you just tell me your opinion about this,just short .I understand you are super busy but I personally don't know other guy who is professional and he is ready to share his honest opinion about other people's work.Thanks in advance.
Vitali Bazilevschi sure just email it to me and when I have time I’ll take a look. Ray@handlebar3d.com
CAN u turn on option to show what keys you prass in the moment it will helps a lot!I almost learn now to use alias on your tutorials and pref files!))
I recommend you to watch the video about the hotkeys on this channel. You can also download the settings and use it.
@@JanKowalski-tg4gv Thank u already using it!)
@@JanKowalski-tg4gv Just want to see his workflow of pressing keys!
If you want I’ll casually mention the keys every once in a while but my software only records the mouse movements not the key strokes.
realy nice job
great stuff!
loved this vdo
Thanks to you for taking a time to make this content! god bless you lol
Hi,
great job with your videos, keep making them.
This may be a little weird and long-winded but I'm looking for a genuine career advice.
I have a degree in automotive/transport design from a small university that I have graduated from back in 2015. While doing the course and several years after I was focusing on clay modelling side of the design process so I haven't really done much with Alias for a while now (apart from watching your videos that make me feel bad about my Alias skills). Since graduating I've had some additional industry standard training from a professional clay modeller to gain any possible edge and experience over other unexperienced clay modelers looking for a junior position. This additional training to me was very expensive and I had to pay for this training out of my own pocket because I don't have family that could support me financially. Saving that money took me a long time. Since then I have contacted all the industry contacts I had, registered with pretty much every recruitment agency that works with car companies with no luck. I've had a single interview with a British high end sport car manufacturer and I find breaking into the industry basically impossible if you're not from one of the major design schools. Moreover I recently spoke to some professional clay modelers with way more experience than me who can't find work in that field, so the chances of me getting a job as a clay or hard modeller are little to none.
So for quite some time now I have been lost and just trying figure out what else I might want to do and what career to pursue. And considering that my current job is in CAD, basic stuff like Sketch Up and AUTO CAD, so I am thinking of a career in Autodesk Alias. I would describe my level of skill in Alias as neither great nor bad, it's average and I know that I would have a long way to go to get to a level like yours where people would actually bother taking a look at my portfolio. However there are a few things that make me hesitate with doing this, first being the high possibility that no one is going to see my portfolio to employ me. Second is time, right now I can only do maybe 10 hours per week to learn Alias due to my other commitments. The third one is time as well I guess, you see I am 30 years old and so I don't want to waste time and money learning something that won't benefit me in the future. And don't get me wrong, I am well aware that it's all up to me, and I am not lazy to put the work in. But at this point of my life I don't want to put all that work and effort in just to find out that the job market is too saturated as it is, like it happened to me with clay modelling. I guess I could say that about everything, but some job markets are way more saturated than others.
Is this a good time to be looking for a CAD modeller job in the car industry? How do you think is the car industry going to change over the next decade, because I have heard that car companies want to adopt Autodesk Speedform to a greater capacity? Do you have any advice for someone in my situation?
If you have read this far then let me just say thank you because you must be a very busy person. And if you do decide to reply, please be blunt and don't sugar-coat it
Hello, thanks for taking the time to write me this letter. I'm sorry you haven't been able to get into the automotive industry. Many of the questions you are asking have no real answer. Would putting in 10 hours a week in Alias eventually land you a job, sure maybe. I can tell you right now that they are way more cad jobs then they are qualified workers. I can also tell you their are many cad modelers who will never get good enough to be hired. Even though theirs many jobs their is still many people applying to those jobs and most of them aren't even close to getting hired.
I don't know who is telling you speedform will take over the industry, even though it is a good tool, it wont replace the cad workflow. It has it's speed but it also has it flaws. I doubt anybody would hire a speedform modeler that isn't also a traditional cad modeler also. So even if lets say, your friend was right, I would move over to speedform myself and it would be fairly easy because of my CAD background.
I don't know what the future holds for the automotive world, I don't know if the workforce will shrink in a decade or expand exponentially. I do know that regardless of what happens I will adapt and make my skill set valuable for that moment in time. I know that whoever puts in enough work to get into modeling does get into modeling. If you have seen my video on how I did it, I am self made myself, and I never stopped modeling until I got a job. We all have different paths in life, what worked for me might not work for you. I hope this helped
@@HandleBar3D Thank you for taking the time to reply to my message. I really appreciate it
thank youuuu
Which alias version is used here?
Thanks for sharing! Could u share with us the set up of ur marking menu? Or just use the default set up? Appreciate with that.
Dear sir, I noticed you used an "S-Curve to square a part of the bonnet. Is it really allowed in A-Class? Or it depends on the company's design philosophy?
Do you have any thoughts good or bad related to sub d modeling ? I appreciate what you do it really helps.
Thanks for the tutorials. Really appreciate you taking the time for these. I am facing a problem though. When I select another tool after applying a shade using Apply Shader tool, the shading disappears. I can't figure out the solution. It would great if anyone knows how to solve this. Thanks in advance!
Hey Ray! I'm an Italian student, First of all thank you so much for your videos! You're became like a big brother to me ahah i love it!
I want to ask you: how can I model in symmetry but just on one side, while the other follow back? I noticed that in your workflow is pretty fundamental, so..
Thank you in advance!
You're the best
Thanks for the nice comment, sorry for missing it. I’m very glad that my channel helped you and I do feel like a big bro as well 😎.
I’m sure you figured out your questions, but let me know if you have anymore
Thanks mate. I had to slow the video speed down by .5 from normal.
Excelente video Raymundo! Muchas Gracias!
Viendo tus videos me surgen un par de preguntas y si tienes chance me gustaría saber tu opinion
1. por que a veces usas free y otras veces position para squares o rails?
2.veo que cuando proyectas curves on surfaces haces mas uso de curves que de cos, recomiendas que sea siempre mejor curves?
3. Que tolerancias usas?
Gracias Ray saludos
1. Depende en la situación, me vas a tener que mandar el tiempo y te explico porque lo use.
2. Porque con curvas puedo cambiar sus degrees rápido, o extender las más que un COS.
3. Altas, como catia v5, .001 positional
@@HandleBar3D Gracias Ray!
1. En el minuto 4:04 para el hood usas free y en tu siguiente video lo usas en mas ocasiones solo me surgía la duda del criterio que se usa para utilizar free en vez de de position,
muchas gracias he seguido el tutorial desde el inicio y la parte tres ya esta lista espero la siguiente parte buenisimo!!
Are you able to create a model just from photos? I have images of a car on a black and white checkerboard floor. The images rotate around the car.
Are you asking if theirs an automatic way to do that? Not in alias but I found an article that explains the different automated methods
prtwd.com/blog/how-to-turn-an-image-to-a-3d-model/
I can't sleep and eat.......where is the part 2?
could you give me your ALIAS PrefSet
Sembro C theirs a link in the description
Can you send the source file
send me an email and ill ship it over 😁
@@HandleBar3D Is it convenient to send it today? I may need it the day after tomorrow😆
Only the wheels needs to be increased. It's a concept. So boldly make the proportions better. And right now the wheels are very small. I'm an auto designer by profession.
Can't believe how expensive this software is what the hell.....
Angry Polygon Me neither, it’s a shame, I’m always telling autodesk they need to lower their cost of entry but nobody replies
