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 couldn't stop my self doing a midget villain. Heres my story.
It's 2016 and Professor mikurt was inventing good inventions until one day a terrible thing happened.Sn experiment went wrong and blew up and made him evil.He lost an eye in the accident so he made a robotic one. He has a life time scar on him due to the accident and made him evil.H e know had decide to destroy the sun by making a machine to blow it up. MWA MWA MWA

I've decided to make it as a cartoon. I'm going to base t on a previous model i have done. (below)

Hmm... looks good... I may have to rethink what I'll be doing user added image
Is this the model you'll be using, or are you going to re-do it and just base your entry on this one as it sounds like from your first post?

No, because the PLE version of Maya saves files out in a different format than Maya usually does.

Otherwise studios would only have to buy one copy of maya, and just use the PLE on all their other machines. Then render out the final product in the licensed version.

Or a genius could take the watermark out using photoshop which would be part impossible.

It would not be impossible, you would simple need to render the char, each time with a different offset. (on the X,Y,Z axis). The bring in all the renders to PS, and line up the un-watermarked sections.

But this would take a long time.

If you are truly 10 years old and can produce work like this, you are worth a first place in my opinion.
And i don't think Mike cares about your watermark i think he judges your work below it, was this a pre made model?

I'm turning eleven in *thinks* 4 days :attn: here is website my dad set up for me when i was 7. stevebutcher.demon.co.uk .

Mastone: i based it on a previous model with a lot of changes. I really just kept the face and the structure of the model.
