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.

I also highly recommend that you start learning some anatomy. It will make your 2D art alot better.
Anyway, here is a piece I did a while back but have been to lazy to post. Another Julia Roberts portrait. let me know what you think.

cheers bullet
Edit: after reading the banter about artistic talent/learning etc...I am puzzled. I have heard of the right brain/left argument too. So what am I...I lean towards math etc (I do it for a living as a Surveyor) and I was extremely good at math in school. BUT I can also draw really well (IMO) although I havent done it for ages. I am NOT alway good at free art (concept) Im lazy, but I was REALLY good at reproduction art (ie copy and scale correctly nearly any image).
IF I had more time I COULD learn to be a better artist so yes I believe you can learn..some people are born with it. BUT I get to this...what is art??? Somebody who cant draw MIGHT be able to build a car with his eyes shut...to me that is also an artform..just not drawing. Maybe the artist is within us all...just some people do it differently??

That Julia piece is still a WIP. I have made alot of changes since I last posted that here. Here is a sample of what it looks like now. I have been burnt out on it for a while. Need to finish it and post it.
