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.

First step ...

Had some time to work on this Brain Freezer user added image

I think I just jumped my first technical hurdle (Still have the texturing one to go).
I need to start the detailing and work on proportions, but at least now it looks as a flower.

Hahaha, notice how all the challenge topics are based on robots and killer machines with large rockets etc? Lol, well adl.. its looking really nice for the flower, just i think its a bit repedative, each pedal is the same.. i suggest making one sag or others with less folds etc. user added image, looking great though.. and brian, lets see this flower (organic model..ooo, not your fav brian user added image).

sorry guys, I have been workin on a 30 drawing storyboard all day for class... user added image But its finally finnished. Yeah, thought a flower would be good because it is challenging and it is different than i usually do. Tomorrow night I am going to go to the store and buy a flower that closely resembles mine, and disect it so that i can get an accurate idea what the pedals should look like and all that kind of stuff... so i have a little research to do b4 i start modeling! So... Tomorrow it is... THanks,
Brian

BTW You are off to a really really nice start. If you want a longer dead line let me know!
Thanks!

I got inspired by ADLDesigner, and now I am going to go to the store and buy my flower tonight so that I can start taking pics and stuff, this may require me to pick a different kind of flower than the one in the pic, depending on what is available at the store. THanks!!
