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

Got the camera out and took a picture of the ring that was made for class. I learned a lot from my first ring and over all for it being as small as it is 3.2 mm wide it still picked up a lot of the details in the silver print. Next ring will be a bit wider with more room to play and pull out the details.

Was a good day... I still have to add some things to the gloves before I pose the hands, once that's done I can play with his weight a bit more. It's close but needs a bit more work. After the pose is done I can move back into the fine detailing in the areas that lost a bit with the transpose master as well as a few more nik naks. This was a test for me as I didn't use very low geometry other then the hard surface parts like i normal do, this is straight up dynamesh work with him. Definitely a bit harder to pose with out using Maya.

This will be my first print on my machine. She is all sliced up and just have to add keys and some final detailing like battle damage. I will post more once she is printed.
