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

Next update

Ok realised had not really posted the front and back views so fare. Hear they are. I think the torso is a bit on the long side but thin it was rendered off perspective. Should have rendered from more like the Ortho's.

Both thighs match now. Still in need of reworking. Converting all to SubD's with lower mesh, sometime soon.

Hears the shader

Keep in mind I have some walls and flore in the seen to warm up the reflections some.

Color is set to a wight or pastel.
Slider all the way to the right.

Diffuse is 1
Translucence is .38
Trans Depth is .9
Trans Focus is .86

Specular Shanding:
Cosine 20.63
Spec Color slider to middle
Reflectivity 1
Reflected color all the the left

Raytracing Options
Refractions off
Reflection Limit 1
Reflection Specularity 1

Raytrace it !


Any one have some advice or hints of making it bette ?

like what is the lowest Reflection Limit I could get away with and still have the same results..

Oh yeah also. I have the defalt light and a spot light. The defalt is behind and slightly right of center.. and the spot is behind the model and far right.. Both have intencitys set to .8

I could play around with bringing the light intencity back up and the Reflection down to get same results.

LOL still got the stickykey problem! user added image Just go into control panel and turn them off! And turn off the shortcuts then they can't come back! user added image As for the toes three is okay if you like it but I think it would look cool. Make the toes not be toes but a toe not just a big freakin toe mind you but a toe piece, know what I mean the foot is two pieces a foot and toe. Or go with doing five cause that would look better than three. Just my thoughts and opinion though! user added image Hope my ramblings help!
