This course will look at the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. We'll look at what makes a good model in Maya and why objects are modeled in the way they are.

nice work
wouldn't mind seeing some basic renders without reflections to see how it looks, but the way it looks now is great
To see this thing in a dark scene with just the red eye at the front would be cool.

Wow - excellent robot nightz9 - it looks vey cool. I really like the legs too and the way the ammo clip attaches - a wire render would be good to see.

Sorry to say tadpole, but I think 13th_resident might be right!

Great work nightz9 - let's see some more!

MattTheMan- thanks user added image because that's the best part of the robot to me haha

tadpole3159- haha you think? you already see the big guns in the front and theres a misile compartment that pops up out the side and I'll model some missiles to show you haha and not only that but the legs are like magnetic force fields thats why they glow like that lol and that big ol butt thing in tha back holds two anti air missiles and a rail gun that's not shown user added image.

whoops!! did i just start a war?
well this is gonna be a fun one.

nightz9 since tadpoles mech is bullet proof i would suggest (trying to have some fun here) to change ur guns to laser ones. hahaha

and tadpole if nightz9 does put laser guns (or whatever he does) i would suggest to equipped your mech with wizard armour. nah jk add some warp drive boosters so run away from him.

GO nightz9

you got a brilliant mind up in your head. tadpole
:bandit:
perhaps i would make a mech someday. but i dont have maya with me now. vacationing!! iam enjoying it so.

i just found a new partner for you tadpole. andy2 (a member in simpymax) made the 3d palace mech tutorial. personally it think it has a more "KILLING SPREE" type of feel than yours. but yours is still cool.
i think nightz just met his match.
