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.

DJ, this looks great. no crits. Can you post a smaller resolution image (640x480) to see the full guitar at once?

Ok, here's a smaller one, Minstrel.

gster123, yeah I know I'll fix that. I didn't think it would show so I didn't care to separate them, but you can clearly see it in this render.

gtser has a good eye and also brought to my attentiion the foot of the neck seen from this angle seems to flare out a little, I think its thinner, cloer to the neck.

hey thats outstanding! I myself am working on my takamine. Was wondering how did you get the strings to wrap around the tuning pegs like they do. Thats impressive. I'm just learning so thanks.

im not sure how he did it.., maybe a helix privative would work.., or model it.., dont think of it in terms of actually wrapping around the pegs.

It's just a couple of donuts that I rotated a bit. So it's not the whole string that's wrapped around, it just looks that way.
