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.

OK, here's the update for today. Hopefully, I'll be able to work on this tomorrow, but I don't think I'll be working on it Thursday or Friday.

Got the base colors down today. I'm having some problems, but I'll discuss them in my next post.

OK, I'm having an odd problem in Maya. I thought I could just restart Maya and it would go away, but I was wrong. This only happens in my viewport. I know I've seen this before, but I can't figure it out. Look at the pic and you'll see what I mean.

Anyway, I should have an update today. Been kinda backsliding as I keep thinking of ways to do different things to it.

Almost finished laying out the base textures. I still have to tweak these a little to get them to match up around the creases. After I'm finished with the base textures, I'll be adding some more color into it, dirtying it up a bit, and messing with the material.

Does anyone know why this happens when I use the 3D paint tool? It's been so long, I forgot how to use it, so I might have gone about the wrong way setting it up.

OK, almost done with this! Still have some more texturing to do, but after that, all I have to do is duplicate it over and set it up for the composite. This is the time to shout out any crits you have.

About that, I'm too lazy to dupe it over, cause I might change it. :p
