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.

You can simply open the special effects handle at your material's attribute editor and then set the glow intensity. that's the easiest way to do it, altought I don't know if your hardware render will support that kind of glow (I think it won't), but maya Software and mentalray rendering engines will do it for sure.


If the worst hasn't happened yet, that's because you haven't tried everything yet!
