First 2 NURB models

Hey guys!

I dont know if ya'll remember me....but I am finaly down here in FL attending Fullsail for computer animation, and I just wanted to share with you my first 2 NURB models I did for class. We didn't spend very much time with NURBS...just this MC class and then we do one more on organic models...then forget NURBS and head further into Poly's and SubDivs

But here they are .....Comments and Crits are very much welcome user added image

Here's a dumptruck I made....we had to do it with partners on seperate computers....each one does 1/2 of the truck. I did the dumpster, backend and wheels...

It was a little toy that they gave us...
