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.

I think I´m going for this one.
As always might change at my discretion, as long as it´s a flower.

In your case the second one looks fairly good.
Personally I would go for that one, feels very enigmatic.

Nice to know that we have an audiance. lol. However, I just wanted to let you know that after messing with this for about an hour, I have come to realise this is a harder task than it sounds. lol, Not sure how to model this yet...

one reason i backed down so fast, a flower seems slightly easy, but when you think about it. The only way i can think is to start with a basic of the base of the flower(i used to know all the technical names, but im really tired), so... the underside of the petals where the grean leaves are. ide make a basic of that. then 3 large petals, then 4 smaller ones. then.. 5 slightly smaller. and arrange them. then the pestills(that what they are.. cant remember) the stem things sticking out of it.



So... one of you if going to contact tariq to get the robo bug he made in the tournement to put on your flower right?
