This course will look at the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. We'll look at what makes a good model in Maya and why objects are modeled in the way they are.

Anyone else doing this?

While working with maya, I am rotating around the area I'm working on all the time to be able to see how everything looks all the time, and now I have started to automatically try to do that in Photoshop too when I want to preview my work! :headbang:

It's a bit embarassing, but I even tried to do it in Word once. Anyone else having this problem? :p

I keep doing Maya commands in ZBrush and vice-versa, then spend ages wondering why nothing is working.
