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.

lol.. or maybe i just have time on my hands user added image , well not much... but enough i guess. I did an extra gun. thanks for smoothing hints, im thinking of rebuilding the body section.. i just doesnt look much like a mean machine in that area yet. And the tracks need beefing up a bit.
Here is a little addition.

talent or time, its still looking cool man!

The body of the gun needs a bit more shape/detail, other than that i can't really thing of anything....

Can we see another Wide shot?
