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.

Model and size of the new one Kurt? And what happened to the old one? Is it Resting In Pieces ? user added image

As for the image it has lots of life and most are really good lines and brushwork. It's a speedpaint so can't really judge it. Judge it is wrong word. I like it user added image

wow, being in graphics I forget that some tools aren't as common as one might believe... A wacom is digitizing tablet, generally used to draw images directly into a paint or image editing program. If you draw... and you do art on a computer, you owe it to youself to get such a tablet.

yeah, I have been "away" (away = addicted to gaming)

I'm good, just kicking myself for wasting over a year of my life on MMROPG games user added image those things are sooo dangerous... dont get hooked! But i am off them now, i went cold turkey on WoW. its the only way to quit.

I check in every so often to see how much more AWESOME you are getting and i am never disappointed.

I am still doing the same real life work stuff and slowly getting back to Maya... i still only have version 5 though user added image i didnt want to spend the money to upgrade... but now i wish i had.
