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.

Well I left my next_gen_character topic alone for now until I understand Zbrush enough. I started a new character , and it is going to be a tough one . I only have a side view so the rest will be imagining. I am also going to change the head cause I just don't like it this way, anyways I started the legs.
