Maya Day 4

this could pass off as a rock cannon...

Seems like extruding is the core to modeling in Maya. Been doing a lot of it lately. It's almost the final stages. Now what's left is to add in small details to make the whole thing more interesting. Then it's on to texturing!

 the shape vaguely resembles....something i should not mention.

Picking up more shortcuts on modeling certain stuff as efficiently as possible. Constant repetition on certain ways to model something is beginning to make handling the modeling part of Maya more bearable.

I'm still not so sure when to apply NURBS and when to apply Polygons though...need to do some research.

By now you must be wondering why are you even keeping track of my progress...and surely this must all be Greek to you. Nevertheless, this is a great way for myself to keep track of my progress. I will start posting sketches and stuff again soon ><

Maya Day 2

hairdryer?

Messed with:
1) Extruding along paths
2) Rebuilding curves to lower resolution
3) Combining NURBS surfaces
4) Converting NURBS to polygon

Ugh...takes lotsa getting used to, but i'm getting the hang of it.

Maya Day 1

BRS rock cannon???

Trying to pick up Maya bit by bit.

I just got to the tutorial vids on modeling finally! So far just went through lofting and trimming.

It sure took some time going through the tutorials for the interface alone. Also trying to pick up Zbrush but i think i will put that on hiatus for the meantime.

when there's a will there's a way

 just a few days back a little chat i had with a friend...

his version in ms paint...

and after that....with my turn again with SAI

Drawing Mannosuke never bores me.
Get to practice the male anatomy at the same time.
win win situation.

 

Baumkuchen

 

Digital art is like Baumkuchen. It has many layers.

Started out as a quick black and white practice, but got carried away and spent somewhat more time than i should.
