Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Really? Hmmm....I never knew it was a female thing to point out things like that...I guess it benefits to being a girl then. :p Lol, no I am just kidding guys!Originally posted by Kerosene
Strange that, when i show my female models to my girlfriend and my female friends they always seem to say the same thing. Hips broader, shoulders wider, belly rounder, ass bigger. I think its us males seeing the world through tainted glasses (tainted with lust, love, beer or just outright stupidity- take ur pick) A fatal flaw when it comes to 3d modelling
Maybe it is since girls technically know their own bodies more and are able to point out the correct proportions due to personal experience...and maybe it is easier for men to model males than it is for them to model females since they tend to know the male body proportions more based on their own. So...for female modelers, the reverse could also be true! 
It may be easier for women to model females but harder to model males. However, I could be wrong, but it is just a thought.Anyway, DJbLAZER, I am looking forward to seeing your progress on the model!Originally posted by DJbLAZER
Thanks for the tips Kerosene and GPMaya84! I will "fat her up" a bit then, hoping she will look more natural. Am modeling a head too, and I can assure you she isn't pretty at this very moment But I hope she will be after some tweaking.
I had problems with the face on my model at first, but it just took a lot of tweeking. Good luck, and I hope to see updates soon!

Exactly!Originally posted by Kerosene
I think the reference was to jealousy over the actual models. Those fine curves, toned backside, tender...

I've been pondering your stuff and was trying to think of a great example of body modelling, and voila its sitting in my bookmarks for ages and has now been added to my links on my site. This is a great model, stylized to a point of what I'd call satisfaction!!
Its real cool and I hope it helps you on your way and anyone else whos modelling humans, its an inspiration for me certainly. Anyway less of my rambling, check the link: https://www.ethereality.info/ethereal...ype_female.htm
Best wishes from Eula Space!!

Been looking for good reference images, but have only found pictures of models, no good pics in profile, feets hands etc. Still need some good head references though, know of any? Thanks again!
