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.

Like a scientific model of the skin layers? hmmm well if you want an organic feel, i would use curves and nurbs. I can't give you much advice myself but you should probably go by trial and error.

yes, just like a scientific model of Skin.
I'm trying many times by using Polygon Modeling, but I haven't successed yet.
Need I creat each layer separately? and then lap them togother?
thanks

THats odd, see for a newbie project, I would choose a nice inorganic architectural object, or maybe a car, And if you want a nice organic one, you may want to go for a hand, or a head.

just my 2 cents

If it were me, I would define the skin layers with the texture map. Unless you need them to be separate pieces. Personally, I would use polygons. Just modify a cube to suit your needs.

Goodluck!
