PxlEyes has a tutorial online that uses 3dsMax, Glu3D, and Cebas Finarender to create an animation of an egg being shattered by a bullet. The tutorial is a bit old (based on Max7) but many of the techniques used still apply on newer versions.
The total tutorial is about 40 minutes, and split into 2 parts.
