This course will look at the fundamentals of modeling in Maya with an emphasis on creating good topology. We'll look at what makes a good model in Maya and why objects are modeled in the way they are.

What I do is "Shift D" (Duplicate with transform) the first one to the right place and then every time I press "Shift D" again it duplicates it the same number of units over. Keep doing it until your done. I think under the options for that you can set it to duplicate more than one time.

Failing that there are option under Duplicate Special where you can set the translate.
