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.

Gster123 - March/April

Well I'm in!

Going to do a sort of robot/human mix, kind of along the lines of Clive Barkers Tortured Souls, mixed with lots more of the borg type mods BUT with Victorian Technology, lots of rivits, cogs, pistons, exposed metal etc.

Well thats the Idea!

Well not being letting this slip form me, just blocking one of the heads that i'll be using out, I'll post some updates soon.

I'm going to model this as i'm going along as ive never done something this way before so it might be a little mad, and a great way of learning! Some of it is referenced of course but most of it wont be!

I did that last challenge for the alien guy. Its a good learning experience but it is a real hassle later on if somthing doesn't work right or you need somthing changed. Good luck with it though user added image
