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.

Forum_snowboarder33 - really nice render!

Are you using advanced tessellation? If not go to windows>general editors>attribute spreadsheet with all your nurbs selected you can play with the tessellation attributes. I find that upping the default levels for all nurbs is a good start.

looking forward to more!

I wanted the lighting that way.. so i made a plane out of camera sight.. with a slit in it for the light to pass through.. thats why it seems to be only lit on half of it.

Are the disk brakes supposed to be that wide?? I'm not fully sure, but they look quite wide to me. Otherwise, VERY nice work.
