Hi there

I'm still new to Maya and am now concentrating on my modeling skills to build objects.

I've been working with the Cartoon Dog By Kurt Boutilier but am having trouble cutting the object in half.

The problem I have is when I delete one side of an object, to get a nice half I can duplicate to make a uniform object, the inside that should be hollow is filled with a type planar surface.

Please could someone talk me through cutting an object in half so I can get a hollow shape which I can duplicate and stitch together.

Thanks
Rory
