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.

Thanks strarup. I just made my first model, and it looks pretty good. I still haven't gone into much detail, but it is still pretty nice looking. When I finish I will upload a pic to let you guys tell me what you think. I am using sub-d's, is that good to start with???

Hi drknow,

oki doki... user added image

btw. you can also use the plugin CPS (Connect PolyShape)... and a great script for rendering is G.I.Joe... user added image

I have a little example here which I have used in this month's challenge about the "devil's stepmom"... in the next message down under it I have put some more basic info... and soon I will put some more info which I have learn from Kühl... it is about how to only work on one half while the other half automatic adopt it... I have used the G.I.Joe script for rendering... user added image

looking forward to see your model... user added image

oh, ok, thanks for the suggestion. Is that an instance that you are talking about? I am getting a scanner too, but I do not know when. When I do I will submit a drawing of my little funny looking horse. Also, How do I make a screenshot of the editing window thingamabob.

Starting My model

OK, I just put up my first model-in-progress. I know it sucks, but it is only about 10 minutes of my work. Find it at https://forums.simplymaya.com/showthr...=&postid=51810
