Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Building101 - WIP
Almost at the finishing stages of modeling, just gotta do a bit more detail on the ground level, model the roof and tweak a few things here and there.

@ RockyMills - Cheers man
@ Ant - Yeah i realised after mid-way threw this project that some parts of the buildings proportion wouldn't be right due to the fact that i was only using two references i took from street level. It was a bit hard for me to distinguish most of the in depth detail from that angle.
One of the main reason for this project get me into the feel of Maya again and relearn some techniques as its been quiet some time since i have modeled anything. But have now finally realised after two years of slacking off at home, i have wasted so much time! I think i am on the right path now though. hopefully, haha! This will be my first portfolio piece.

Thanks for the comment
Umm actually i haven't even used bevel within this project yet. Its actually just mainly objects overlapping each other and using the Boolean + Union/Difference tool...

Anyway, happy with the result of the modeling though the render's don't look that appealing(still gotta learn how to render properly). Im quiet surprised at how much cleaning up/stitching/deleting back faces lowers the poly count. Got it from 100k to a clean 35k tri's. Here's a few horrible renders to look at...
