Introduction to Maya - Rendering in Arnold
This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

Thanks jsprogg.
I am very new to UVs and texturing so wish me luck.

The wings are now attached to the body and I've also created some skin details and grooves.

God UVs take a long time!
I still have some UV tweaking before I start to paint the textures.

I can't render with Mental Ray because Maya keeps complaining about 5 sided polys. Is there an easy way of finding that little 5 sided git?

Layed down some basic colour and a bit of bump too.
I also added a transparent map too.

Loads of detail to play with but I think I'm doing ok.

Transparent wings, what an inspiration. You work unbelieveably fast.

Good job.
