Looking For Organic Modeling Suggestions...
I'm interested in learning "organinc" modeling techniques.
I assume its done with NURBS, correct me if I'm wrong.
The last organic model I made was from "Maya Fundementals 4.5" book & I felt I learned nothing.....
I'd like to model some animal/creature while carefully being taught the organic techniques.
Which one should I choose?
T-Rex
The Oliphant
Centaur
Any Input Is Appreciated

i am one of those who use all 3 occasionally but i prefer polys...... it all depends on what your most productive surface type is.
and i personally suggest the organic modeling 2 DVD(where you model a zombie)

Thanks for the input guys...
The "Centaur" has both human & animal features so I can experience modeling both types quad/bipedal.
The "Oliphant" body doen't look to challanging. But the armor seems intricate. I wonder if thats nurbs converted to polys or subd's
The "TRex" is just cool. But its been done to death.
The "Dragon", is this on Dvd? Or is it a online tutorial only?
I'll way my options................I wish some the dvd authors would append their opinions in this thread :zzz:
