Anyone able to answer a question? During part 2 of the tutorial, Where you are supposed to join the head and the body (mesh-booleans-union) My head and body dissapear instead of turning green. Any sugestions? This is only my third day with maya so I’m doing the best I can. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
im up to part 2…. and what a king for eye balling that hand! sweet im in uni and just starting to use maya and your videos are helping me so much
right in the beginning with molding the large body sphere dont work for me i click on one dot and it highlights all the purple dots what am i doing wrong i am a beginner. I am also using a mac.
HI Kurt this is awesome!
Im new to Maya on a 30 day trial. I know this may be a real silly question, but is this type of model just for a rendered still, or can this model be made to animate too.
I know its a super entry level question.
KC
yes u can animate but you have to rigg and skin the character ohh and if u want facial expressions you have to do blend shapes
Great Tutorial, but i am unable to access the picture to use as a reference. Can the picture be reposted please?
I’ll get arnel to fix it as soon as i talk to him
There is not a single tutorial on the web that is as well explained as yours. I know its 40$ to get a years access to your tutorials but could you maybe make one “freebie” from scratch to finish, because i am so new at Maya and i am interested in learning it, i used 3dsmax when it was like 6 ;D.. and owned then by a company named Discreet. If i like Maya then im going to buy access to your tutorials. Your Voice, how calm you are and how much details you go into just BLOW ME AWAY.. Keep the good work up
