Complex UV Layout in Maya
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

brainstorming and have a question - can I use the Dark Crystal? I was thinking of doing either Gandalf as a mystic or Saruman as a skeksis. Since it is still a fantasy genre, I wasn't sure if this would fly...I'll keep brainstorming until I get a reply.

If you've not seen the movie, The Dark Crystal, it's kinda hard to explain other than the skeksis were evil critters and mystics were the good guys. Lovely movie, I thought. All made with puppets.

Sorry, can't allow that one. It's pretty much Fantasy in much of the same manner Lord of the Rings or other type magic/kinda-medieval genre.

ok...this one would be fun...how about Saruman as a mob boss?...does this fit in the rules? (I don't have to choose a particular gangstar do I?)

sure, that's fine. user added image As a character-defining detail, use a staff of some kind in your design. Maybe like a cane? Cool stuff.

ATTENTION!

As in the WIP forum, keep your images around the 640x480 mark unless you host them from your own site.
