This course will look at the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. We'll look at what makes a good model in Maya and why objects are modeled in the way they are.

Hotrod Stage Coach

Hello every one. I just thought I would post a W.I.P. here. I call it the Hotrod Stage Coach. The Idea came to me in a dream, and I have tried to work on it ever since. This is my first Maya project on my own, and I dont know exactly where to go from here. Any help would be great. I am not very experienced with this stuff yet. any ways let me know what you all think. Any images with different angles and what not just let me know
Thanks

Leland Webb

Groovy idea and model user added image

You should get some car nut to actually build this as it'd definately pull the crowds in at a car show user added image

Updated Picture

Hello everyone!! I have been working on the stage coach tonight, and have come up with some new things for it. I need an honest opinion though, with this being my first Maya project, is it where I need to be? should I be more advanced than this, I have only been using Maya for about seven months. Any ways here is the picture let me know if you would like to see more of them.

when you open an image editing program, just go to edit > paste and it will paste the image you got a screen grab of.

(it goes to the clip board, so you could also search for the program)
