Thanks Dave,
This is a pretty simple model to build. Mostly just primitives and extrusions. The greebling was the only thing that took some time as I just made them up on the fly. I need to start collecting and organizing these parts into some kind of asset library.
I see some kind of asset container doo-hicky-goo-gaw was added to Maya but even after RTFM'ing I have no idea what the workflow is to use it or if it is even for what "I" define as an "asset manager". Which is a database of objects that can be searched VISUALLY and imported into models.
I have a PhD in Medical Physics, and Masters Degree in Aeronautical Engineering, and Bachelors degree in Computer Science, believe me when I say I know how to read and glean information from documents, but these maya docs read like they just sat a monkey in front of a keyboard and let it bang on keys! (LOL)
