Free Rhino 8 User's Guide Files: Rendering Essentials (McNeel)

Overview

The Rendering Essentials chapter of the official Rhino 8 User's Guide by Robert McNeel & Associates comes with a utility-knife scene saved in stages: Materials-, Scene- and Lights-Utility-Knife.3dm plus a finished file. Following the chapter, you assign materials, set up the environment, skylight and ground plane, place lights and render the product with Rhino Render, the built-in renderer.

The four or more .3dm files are free direct downloads linked from the chapter page, so you can open the scene at any stage and compare your settings with the finished version. A solid first rendering exercise for product designers new to Rhino.
