Hi there, I have been using maya for a little while now but have only just started using the "create polygon tool" and am having some problems..

First off I used an image plane in the top view to create my outline for the dragon.

Next i went to face view in perspective and noticed the point for the face was outside the outline - see first image???

so i just clicked the point and extruded the face...see second image. this is pretty much how i want my finished object to look.

Lastly i exported it as .obj and then imported it into another 3d prog "poser5" and the third image shows the result!??
obviously it only seems to show the outline.

Can someone please help me with this problem or point me in the direction of a good tutorial?

All help vastly appreciated!
