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.

By game asset, do you mean this is a game model? It looks great but if it's for a game...it seems like way too many polys for a non character object.

Nice work.


Don't be satisfied with what you can do but rather strive to do the things you can't do!

yeah, it's for a game, i think i can knock the poly count down, though 4000, isn't that much, considering that most game characters are around 10k tris,

but i do see where you're comming from,

it looks pretty cool

perhaps the stepping parts can be done via displacement maps on slanted faces? dunno how easy that would be or how it would look but it might bring your polycount down a bit if it's all in polys.




that's a "Ch" pronounced as a "K"

Computer skills I should have:
Objective C, C#, Java, MEL. Python, C++, XML, JavaScript, XSLT, HTML, SQL, CSS, FXScript, Clips, SOAR, ActionScript, OpenGL, DirectX
Maya, XSI, Photoshop, AfterEffects, Motion, Illustrator, Flash, Swift3D

Won't be using displacement maps if it's a game asset,

would be good to see a wireframe to see how it's built,

cheers
