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.

I want to smooth out the handle section of the gun. When i extruded the faces it got all choppy. Any way i can smooth just that section? Any suggestions?

Hey, nice work. Sorry I cant help you with your problem but I just wanted to know if you followed a tutorial for this. If so what is it, and if not, then you should make it one. I cant seem to find any.
