When working with Maya you’ll always find new functions and when you start to include them in your workflow, some of them become powerful tools. Each member of our team would like to present one of the tools he has discovered while working on our film.

By now, you should be confident with basic NURBS modeling and texturing. You should be comfortable with using the 3D Paint Tool for planning out your textures, as well as using various procedural nodes to add that slight detail to the overall look

This series of videos will show the construction of the torso.

This tutorial will demonstrate how to simulate the flowing of a water stream using particles in Maya.

These two movies will demonstrate some techniques to making 3D text in Maya, both in NURBS and polys.

We will complete the rest of the waist/pelvis construction, then align and connect the leg to it.

We proceed with the next body part - the waist area. Let’s practice and apply what we have learned so far : use of reference images, Create Polygon Tool, modifying vertices, Split Polygon Tool, Soft/Harden, etc.
