Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world

Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Thanks Dr J, texture wise i'm leaning towards the traditional Grey alien look. Greyish blue, with a slight speckled texture, semi-opac looking.

I've been doing some sketchs at work, naughty but hey I start a new job tomorrow user added image

, and I'm gona try the horizontal eyelids for something a bit different.

I'm working on the feet at the moment but the toes look really thin and spindley. Will post a update later today.

Quick update, feet need fleshing out more. The toes are still too thin and need some nails adding. comments always welcome.

Thanks RC, the hands were ment to be slightly oversize but I think your right I may have overcooked it a bit.
