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.

Not off to a bad start. That watermark is a makes it hard to see whats going on, especially in such a dark scene.

yeah the watermark makes it very hard to see without effort, but it seems like theres a nice mood behind it.

Yeah i cant do anything about the watermark unfortuneatly. Yeah it is dark, im still trying to get a balance with it not being to dark, but yet dark enough to fit the right mood. You can actually see it better with a bigger pic size. Heres a bigger pic, i know its bigger than what your supposed to post, please to dont kill me user added image Mirek03 Let me know if you still cant see it, ill just turn the light intensity up some more

Well i planned on trying to make it a dark, creepy scene. Possbily at night or a dark cloudy daytime if i couldnt get the nightime lighting off. I planned on maybye putting some fire effect in thos bowls, adding some more trees maybye. I actually started 3d using maya, so if i had to use the ple editon for a less obtrusive watermark i wouldnt mind. Can you still get the ple edition anyway anymore?

I dont know? Last I knew it was still going...have u heard different? relooking at your images I maybe remembering Ple's watermarks as less obtrusive than they are. And if you've used it, I guess you already know.
