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.

Using NURBS & Polygons together?
Quick question for you...
I'm in the process of modeling a character for my demo reel. My question is,
Is it normal to use a combination of geometry types? ie. Some parts NURBS, and some parts polygons.
Or is it wise to keep everything the same, either polygons or NURBS?
It's sorta a simple character; stick like/robot character.
Thanks for the input,
George

any chance of a reference image so I can help you more?

I don't have any references at the moment, but I'll bring some in asap.
