Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

@Bullet: Thanks man. I appreciate the comments.

I have never got around to doing organic charactor stuff (cause i think its hard)

Needless to say your model does nothing to convince me otherwise, looks fantastic:bow:

I think its hard too BUT if you lok at the human body or any organic they really are just lines like mechs. Its just a matter of altering/warping the way you think about it I reckon?

@paldav: Thanks man. It's no harder than most other subjects of modeling, hard-surface modeling, etc. It's just about learning the subject matter.... and never expecting to stop learning.

@Bullet: Thanks. Yeah, I forget where I first saw the quote. But I thought it was great..

And, yeah, you're right a lot of the process is about the lines, but you have to consider the forms and the underlying structure, and how if effects the surface. It's all good fun though.

Thanks for the comments.

Yes that is something I didnt think of Mayaniac, the underlying structures!!! At least with mechs you dont have to worry too much about that. I would like to try an organic tut once Im finished with Kurts Spitfire, just to expose myself to another form. You really do great work man

BTW the reason behind my madness, the wife gets cranky cos of the time I spend on Maya. As she is a fanatic of Eeyore I want to do one for her, I tried one but without ref images, just a photo and my eyes. It was ok but thats why I need to be more comfortable with the nurb nightmare, bahahaha

cheers bullet
