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.

April Challenge - Spoiler - noobie

Hi,

Not tried one of these challenges yet so I'm gonna give this a go. I was hoping for something less organic but nevermind. It's all good practice.

fear my 3 week skills, mwahahha.

Hey spoiler, very nice.. make the eyes a bit more narrow though when you model it, to give it that evil look. Looks great! Are you going for a statue look, or the actual gargoyle?

Not sure yet. I've been doing some sketches of it standing up. I'm hoping I could animate it at some point.

But this is all probably wishful thinking user added image

Change of plan and all that.. I can be very fickle.

Anyway, here is a evil pet sketch. I'm gonna clean it up in illustrator and make all the proportions even.

Damn, you can tell I'm new. I'm far too excited about this. Hardly anyone has signed up yet and I'm off and "my" full speed (which isnt very fast I can you).

anyway, I kinda got the body of my "evil dog".

I thought I'd leave the ears until I have had more practice. So no I bring you claws. Albeit a little wonkey
