LOL Vijay. thanks..

drknow, I learned buy reading and falowing the tutorails in the doc's of maya. On line tutorails of other places. And a lot from this websight.. both the tutorals hear and also reading through the threads and seeing what others have done and how they did it.

Kuhl, yes I did them buy hand. What I did was like dannys script though. Yep it toke a LONG time with this one thought becouse of all the inside twisted wire, so many peaces in so many difrent directions.

Vectorman. thanks.. yeah the wings got the 4k becouse of the amount of space they use of the model. Yeah no training just lots of reading and tutorails, help hear.. Basicly nasesity is the mother of invention. I know what I want to do so I go out and figer out how to make it happen.

Ereitz THAnKs ! LOL.. yeah know what you meen about bizzy .. I'm getting my back up aginst a lot of time walls.. Hay how are you doing on your model ?? would love some updates..

oh yeah.. Vectorman, thanks for helping out, both me and others with the links man.. they help save time..

Great job!!!

hey check out www.outpost.com for RAM they have some great prices and you should be able to do same day delivery cause they are through Fry's electronics and we have lots of those in AZ or just going to one works as well! But when you got the money right! user added image

I've been learnin about texturing at work but unfortunately haven't had any time to work on my model - I'm living vicariously!

One more day left and I haven't looked at her for a week. I don't think I'm going to get a final render in. But I'm looking forward to seeing the final results of the contest here. Pony you've really progressed with this model - what's your next project? user added image
