hey all ..organic modeling is tough yes but you can do it .... the dragon tutorial is very good ...alot of new stuff to learn . Yes it is hard at times but then again any organic modeling is.

The tree frog is a very good one too. I have it but have not tried it ..i have looked at it and viewed it is good. I just wanted to do a dragon.

If you are not familar with the tools of maya then i would say learn those.

also have you done the dog tutorial ? if so then either one would be good .

I would suggest either one or try something that is not organic ...like a star ship or something like that ..organic is hard at times but if you are able to stay on track it is worth it ...

Kurt tutorials are very good . I have learned tons from it and very thankful ... also people here will help you out if you have trouble.

the dragon dvd does take you step by step as a beginner ..so dont worry about that ... if you want to do a dragon . It shows alot of other tools that are basic to use and start off
