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.

Definitely up to your masterful standards, Kurt! I wonder, however, why in bloody blue blazes a "sea creature" would have such highly developed "land legs"! (well, maybe he's a hammerhead/Alaska king crab hybrid! ) :-)

Keep us posted, I really like this one!

This makes me want to play Starcraft again :attn:


The trouble with doing something right the first time, is nobody appreciates how difficult it was.
