..adding and deleting for rooms in Maya...it is not the best application for creating rooms....it can be achieved..however Sketchup is much better for this. Thanks Bullet - I don't think I'll be using Maya for much room building. One of decisions I'll have to make is, 'what to use Maya for?' I trying to improve my chances of finding work in the local graphic design studios. I figure some basic 3D package skills would be a good addition to my portfolio. But there does appear to be different ways to model for different outcomes. e.g 3D characters for mobile games 'seem' to need a different approach to high quality rendering for photo quality adverts. I'll focus on building some good all round general basic modelling skills first. Phil
