My First maya animation

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 bad for a first. And about your problem, did you set the project so it uses the image folder for that particular project's scenes?

Buy the animators survival kit its an excellent spring board, most things are wrong but keep trying dude! Its a BIG learning curve but very rewarding one ive encountered.

Its all under File>Project. I guess its safe to say that you never created a project folder for this in the first place, I suggest you get into the habit lol. Better file management = less hassle.
