This course will look in the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. It's aimed at people that have some modeling experience in Maya but are having trouble with
complex objects.
right...hardest bit (for me done) the back foot! wow what a wierd experiance that was!! In the end I had a reference for a kinda side on t-rex foot and the skeletal structure of a chicken lol (which is basically the same!!)
I had to eye ball amost the whole lower leg!
any ways... heres what I got:
I know the claws need to be bigger but ill do that next.
getting there now.. front feet and then the teeth
crits and comments very welcome at this stage as Im getting near where I want to bring the modeling to an end and start the texturing
Tyrannosaurus was the largest of the "lizard-hipped" carnivorous dinosaurs known as theropods. It was a massive two legged with a powerful tail, large head and tiny arms.
Its primary weapon was its mouth, with a 1.2 metre long jaw and a 1 metre gape. Curved serrated teeth, longer than a human hand, could be used to puncture an animal's organs, before Tyrannosaurus tore the flesh off. Tyrannosaurus could not chew, so had to swallow its food whole. It could probably gulp up to 70 kilograms in one go. One fossil shows the danger of this - a large carnivore had died swallowing, with two long bones stuck in its gullet.
Its tiny two-fingered arms seemed very small, but were believed to have been at least three times as strong as human arms. They were too short to reach its mouth, but were probably used as meat-hooks. There is clear evidence that tyrannosaurs fought one another from tooth-marks left in fossil remains.
The first reasonably complete Tyrannosaurus skeleton was discovered by palaeontologist Barnum Brown in Hell Creek, Montana, in the USA in 1902. Until this find only fragments had been unearthed. In all, over 20 individuals have been found, although, only three have complete skulls. Remains have been discovered from Alberta and Saskatchewan in Canada,to New Mexico, Montana, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming in the USA. Remains have also been found in Mongolia.
