This course will look at the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. We'll look at what makes a good model in Maya and why objects are modeled in the way they are.

I started the basic shape lay out about 2 weeks ago ... Added all the detail this week. I still have a lot of work left. Adding ropes and things so hopefully by monday it will be all done with a rider.

Excellent model Kurt!

Is your project also including the 'ghoul' from the advance modeling tutorial? Because I can clearly see that the two of them have a similar style.

Animating this thing will be very fun and interesting!

I like it, not to sure about the rider, is he going to change, if so what about replacing it with a frog like creature, from one of your CGtalk concepts.user added image
