Complex UV Layout in Maya
Over the last couple of years UV layout in Maya has changed for the better. In this course we're going to be taking a look at some of those changes as we UV map an entire character

My first Organic Modelling Model

Hey all, just so you know, i am using David Komorowski's Head Modelling Tutorial to make this one, i am rather new to maya so i am going through different tutorials and learning as much as i can, and perhaps.. maybe one day be as good as some of the artists on this site user added image. Anyways... without further adieu, i give you my Orc head, half completed, let me know what you guys think so far!!

Cheers,
Imperator

I think that it is a good start, toouser added image. You maybe should have used your own pictures for the head and not the ones delivered with the tutorial, but for your first organic modelling it is really a good try.

Imperator, great start, he has a nice character to him.

Thank you guys,

I would have used my own drawing for him morpher, but right now unfortunately i dont have access to a scanner. So i thought i would just use the pictures that dave offered with the tutorial. Its a good way for beginners to Maya like me to learn things such as polygonal modelling (this tut has taught me /alot/) But i will keep you guys posted, after i am finished modelling i am gonna try my hand at texturing him user added image. Wish me luck user added image.

Cheers,
Imperator

he still looks a bit too friendly for an orc, but coming along real nice. not sure if you do that later, but the stitch where the halfs meet need be changed sometime though ...

keep it up
