  1. For a beginner, watching this and following along is very difficult. He is using keyboard shortcuts and selecting things quickly without explaining how to do it in very much detail. Someone who knows a lot about Maya already could easily follow this, but I cannot. I'm stuck at 2:03 and can't figure out how he does it. 🙁 Very little explanation is involved here for beginners.

  2. HI
    Thanq very much for your lessons. I learnt a lot from ur lessons.Recently I came across a tutorial in Max Droid B8 model and animation. Can you please do it in Maya. I tried in maya but I didnt get the textures. Hope you will do it.
    thanq

  3. Hi! Firstly, thank you for your tutorial!

    I'm currently doing a final year project and your video did help me out a lot. (computer science student here with no artistic background :X)

    Secondly (for my project), should I be doing eyes on a different layer by deleting faces for eye sockets or should I just merge an oval shape for the eyes. (Ultimately, I would need to animate the model, like sleeping, which might be a problem).

    Hope for your respond!

  4. Thank you for your very useful lessons!
    would you mind, if it's possible, to show us how to put these 3d models into a video with real people and maybe some technique to interact with them?
