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.

Hey Brian, its Kurt. Your new char looks great. Maybe give your deck wheel chair access so he could get down and maybe try and give your xmas tree some miracle grow and see what it looks like when its huge and gnarled, just a thought. Gimme a holler later.

Be aztec-nical as you can with talking to fellow Mayans.

Hey kurt. Thanks for the reply, yeah... not sure what I am going to do now. Had a few more ideas. both the Wheel chair access and making the tree bigger are good ideas. Have tons more work to do, but I will give you a call about it later. Ummm.....off the subject, I can meet with you tomorrow to do the Matchmoving on the scene with ET. THanks for the C&C, talk to you later,
me

To me it looks like the half which is facing to the right is pulling the other half forward. That initiated another idea: why don't you make the other half completely black and the other white. It would be like grown together twins fighting to get rid of each other. Don't know how that relates to the topic of the challenge tho user added image

Thats really funny because that is exactly what my Girlfriend just said when I showed it to her, yeah, thats what I am going to do I will change it when I get home tonight. I am really not trying to spend to much time on some of the guys since they are just going to be sitting in the background of my final image. thanks for your C&C,
Brian
