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.

Patrick Star....

Hi all Maya Users. I'm new around here just started using Maya like 1 month ago and I've been mostly learning everything from tuts over the net. so what i learned so far was this simply character design.

I just had 2 make Patrick star, as u all know he's from sponge bob square pants animation cartoon.

Hope u guyz like it and please dont hate me so much if i didnt do it so well, as u can see this is my first post if im not mistaken. So Enjoy!

P.s. Plz criticizes it, i wanna know more, really wanna learn!

Cheers user added image

good job! nice overall, but i dont think patrick is That fat. Unless he scarfed down some SeaTwinkies before he surfaced. His tongue makes him look like hes gagging a bit also.


Yay, not a freshman anymore!

id say stretch him out a bit, make him taller. Give him a nice cartoony tongue and tighten his shorts!

Haha lol looks good. I think that you should raise his head a bit though. It looks a little too close to his neck.

I guess Patrick doesn't really have a neck, but I think you got the picture. Looks better. Perhaps you could throw his rock in there?
