Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world

I figure I might as well post a wip thread for this guy. He is not very good modelling wise, but I hope to get a good texture on him, as I have never textured anything before. Maybe he will look good eventually user added image

Oh, and it also has 75 non planar faces in the low poly version. Does that really matter, because the smoothing fixes all of that.

Uv layout is a art form all its own mate... Just takes time and practise.
