    Description

    A material is simply an image stretched over an object to make it appear as if the object is made out of various materials such as wood, marble, brick, metal, plastic, glass, and so on. AutoCAD 2015 software provides a materials library that you can attach to the objects. Once you have applied the material, you will learn how to adjust how the material is mapped to the object. Using visual styles, you can immediately see the effects of the materials, or you can see the full effects by rendering the scene. This class will explore the methods that help you to create new materials that you can add into your scene.
