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.

trees look a bit plain. to create a more "realistic" feel try

1/ use nurbs curves, extrude along path to create some really bizzare shapes and form them into a tree

2/ use paint effects (and convert to a poly mesh.)

Mind you that the trees will be textured too, and that I'm not going for a realistic feel, as this is gonna be part of a fantasy scene. Guess I should have mentioned that.

But thanks for the tip.
