Over the last couple of years UV layout in Maya has changed for the better. In this course we're going to be taking a look at some of those changes as we UV map an entire character

Very nice and great sketches. You work the same way I do. I am sure you probably have thirty iterations of this thing laying around that you doodle inbetween working on things. You hear people complain at school before the model something but unless you know what you are going to build you never get a really clean model.

Hey Rick

Yeah absolutely, I dont understand people who just dont pre plan stuff whether its a quick few sketches or a good drawing, every piece of reference you can get will speed up the process no end, this speeder had aircraft reference, you know engines etc, it helps me rattle this stuff out hence the results so quick!!

Cheers again Rick

Hey Cmon dude let me finish the models before I get on with the rigging and posing, 6 characters to go, then environments, background lo res figures and a few other vehicles inluding a real cool speeder bike, it will be worth the wait so please be patient. The current character should be finished by the middle of next week, time permitting, then on to the next, so I'm churning them out asap cos I want to get going with it all.
