Complex UV Layout in Maya
Over the last couple of years UV layout in Maya has changed for the better. In this course we're going to be taking a look at some of those changes as we UV map an entire character

Tournament#1 - Sign Up - 8 person

Hey, this will be an 8 person tournament! So saying that it will have 3 rounds, at 1 week a piece. What you have to model is the following

Round 1:
Model a small creature with small limbs and just the creature with no accessories, naked.(like a critter of some sort)
Style: Open (Polys, Subd's, nurbs)
Textures: Optional (will help)
Length: 7 days

Round 2:
Model accessories for your critter (Harness, armor, built on guns etc.)
Style: Open (Polys, Subd's, Nurbs)
Textures: Yes
Length: 7 days

Round 3:
Model an enviroment for your critter (Sewers, Jungle, Cave etc.)
Style: Open (Polys, Subd's, nurbs)
Textures: Yes
Length: 7 days

Now, the first 8 people to post and say "I will compete in tournament#1" (or along those lines) will be the competators. If within 2 weeks there are not 8 people aquired yet, then this tournament will be cancelled or redesigned. Hope theres a lot of competators user added image.

BTW, please read the tournament rules that are in the battle arena forum before entering. Thankyou user added image.

Thats the thing, that is up to you user added image, but if you mean.. can i go and find a refrence that i did not do.. SURE user added image. Its the model that i care about. Anyways, remember braam's creature for the futuristic model comp.. thats kinda what i mean, or something like a gremling if you want to go more organic, or just a furball.. its up to you, cute, organic, or a robotic creature user added image. Thanks for joining you 2.. hopefully we will have more competators and this will actually take off user added image.

Wonderful! Ok, so there is 4 so far, we could run a 4 person tournament, but 8 would be wonderful! Anyone that has already joined or see this, you can talk to others on the page if you want and try to get them to join user added image. And for the competators so far, in 2 days if there are still not enough people, this tournament will start with 4 user added image.

Well, if you guys dont mind (seeing i will probably get booted out first round anyways).. then i will join user added image. So, I'd like to sign up! "why certainly M".. user added image. Anyways, ok.. 2 more that we need. And to answer your question, no.. we cannot just have a competition with 5 or 6..as you need to figure out if it will work out to 1 person remaining. So, 2 could join (regular battle), 4, 8, 16, 36, 72, 144 user added image. Ok, but yea, it works like that. It will make a lot more sence once i can get the ladder up and running user added image, (as soon as the tournament starts).
