This course will look at the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. We'll look at what makes a good model in Maya and why objects are modeled in the way they are.

OH YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD BE COOL!!!!, man, sorry for that sentance, BUT... i had a brainwave, why dont you make the warrior type head that you have as the main robot, which will be this big, cool, warriorlike robot. Then in its forehead make a oval glass window (kinda big, so that the guy isnt puny to the model).. and shove fred in there! I dont know if thats what you were thinking, but either shovin him in the head... or... ooh ooh, you could make the "warrior type" body a powersuit! Fred goes into the powersuit and gives him super powers user added image. Lol, well... that was my brain going bonkers for ya user added image. Cant wait to see what you do next user added image.

BTW, if you didnt know.. seeing i dont hear it much.. a powersuit to me is like a shell for your body, that just fits user added image. Cya.

M, thats a great Idea. I was also thinking along those lines... Well, Here is an arm that I am working on that is inspired by Starwars, but is not based on a startwars model. (If that makes any sense). THanks,
Brian
