Creating Neon Lights with Scanline

SCENE PREPARATION

unit - meters
renderer - scanline

Creating a scene. First create a simple wall by dragging a plane in your front viewport. Here i created a plane with dimension 8.0m x 10.0m, and with a segment of 4 x 4.
Then i provided it with a brick maps, which is located on 3dmax default material.
Then for the neon objects, 'CREATING NEON LIGHTS with SCANLINE', just go to creating and modifying panel, select shapes then text. Go to your front viewport and create a text there. Then activate rendering sub menu panel, and tick the box Enable on Rendering, Enable in Viewport and Generate Mapping Coordinates. Then tick the radio button Radial and provide thickness amount and number of sides like the see figure below.


For some graphic figures (face figures) i just use line and circle with the same parameters with the text. Then go to top or left viewport and move the wall away of about 1 cm to the text and graphic figures.
Add some 3d accessories for the scene, see figure below.
