Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Need Help

Friend used his points and got me Ninja tutorial for my b-day
However once i got to part 3 Kurt's model appears completely different from the part 2 model however he explains he changed the direction of the face just by tweaking and using split poly tool. I have been at it for hours and cant seem to even get close to understanding how he did it. Below is my wire frame you will see that my contours of the face are similar to his in part two but in part 3 they have totally changed direction any help would be greatly appreciated.
