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.

Sorry about the last competition. As it closed toward the end less and less people were working on theirs so a grand prize wasn't going to be awarded, so I dropped out. For some reason I feel more enthusiastic toward this one. It's different then what I have been doing lately so it will be fun. I've already started and my concept is a dragon/eel underwater creature. This is the exoskeleton of its head.

Here is kind of what the fish will look like when animated. The fish will be longer by the way.

Here is a closer view of the fish. There will be more movement in the back fin when added to make it more realistic.
