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.

Thanks again for your help guys. Honestly, I didn't model the gunship. I was working with Bruno Parillo, he was working on the republican gunship for this animation. I think he is also working on a droid ship for this animation, for a chase scene, not sure. I am also currenty working on an animation involving a pod race, going down Highway 270. Its comming along ok, I am using the tutorial on Highend3d for the dynamice constraints, on the pods, its working quite well. I was thinking about making my own pod racer instead of the Star Wars ones, out of like modern day jet engines, or even prop engines, and the pod being a motorcycle or something, kind of like a modern day pod racer. Let me know what you think, thanks for your input,
Brian

This final Republican Gunship animation will be about 1 min long.

Hopefully done by the end of next week, Most of the time I get to work on this is between 11 at night and 3-4 in the morning.

another thing you should do is to create some geomtry so that the ship goes behind the lamp-post on the right coz at the moment it goes infrom of it, which makes the ship look really small
