if ya got a fast internet you can watch a hell load of free tutorials online at digitaltutors.com
here is a link to the free tutorials section https://www.digitaltutors.com/digital.../tutorials.php
if you scroll down a little you will see a box that says maya tutorials >>. on the left side you will see differents sections of tutorials, like such.
» Training Kits
» Animation
» Essentials
» Dynamics
» MEL
» Modeling
» Rendering

there are about 5 pages of free tutorials on modeling.btw you can also buy training dvds there (digital tutors).

there is also metic.net. but there are only 3 maya videos, which sucks..

hope this was handy


A pint of example is worth a gallon of advice!!

Ok i have another question, i have the personal learning edition of Maya and i;m wondering is it possible to get rid of the tex that appeares when you hit 4 on keyboard and go out of the wirefram mod becuse it makes the program very laggy.
