How to model a Candle in 3DS Max & V-Ray | Architectural Visualization | The Mausoleum Lesson 09

In this ninth lesson of The Mausoleum architectural visualization series, I demonstrate how to model a candle in 3DS Max. This is an important step before moving on to creating realistic materials and lighting in V-Ray, which I cover in the next tutorial.

I also show some workflow tips for modeling small props accurately while keeping the scene manageable for architectural visualization.
