Just starting out with Hard Surface Modeling in Maya? In this Maya Hard Surface Modeling Tutorial for Beginners, I will show you how to jump start your 3d Modeling with my personal workflow.
In this Tutorial, I will cover the following Maya Modeling Techniques :
► Holding Edges
► Density and Volume Loss.
► Fixing UV Distortion common with Sub Division Modeling.
► How curvature affects modeling difficulty.
► Working from larger shapes to smaller ones.
► 3D Modeling in Pieces vs 3D Modeling a shell.
This 3d Modeling tutorial is great for Maya Beginners.

With the bevel mode you can untick chamfer to give you a fencing around the whole thing which i find the best out of all when you want even support throughout the hole shape

Maya’s creases are supported in Zbrush through FBX or through GoZ. Zbrush does support creases you can even see it if you enable crease visibility. This was critical for one of my workflows.

Great advice right there at the end, for sure. If you won't see it, you don't need to model it. Helps keep your poly count low if you're working with a faces budget.

Thanks for your great tutorials! I started learning modeling again a few months ago. It's actually like the 5th attempt because during the past 15 years I always got to some kind of brick wall of "how the hell do I do that? What am I doing wrong?" and quit. But not this time. Your tutorials are really helping me with that.

@@jlmussi thank you, that's really good to hear. I'm doing this for ~10 months now and I have produced almost nothing that I would consider worth to be shown to others... I see everything that's wrong with for example the edgeflow and topology in my meshes but lack the knowledge how to properly fix it. And also I constantly try to create things that are way to difficult for me and in the end I'm frustrated because it (of course) doesn't look like how I imagined it. But giving up is not an option, no matter what.

I always used fencing, didn't use bevel as it creates a tri face. Shouldn't it be avoided? My model becomes very heavy due to fencing (adding edge loops through whole model). Better to use bevel? As it creates tri but doesn't add edges through whole model.

turn chamfer off when using bevel and it'll remove the tris

@jlmussi

@GeorgeSladkovsky
@GeorgeSladkovsky 5 жыл бұрын
@@jlmussi The benefit is that the sound travels directly to the membrane of the microphone instead of bouncing off the walls of the room and then traveling to the mic. Less echo/reverb, more volume, better frequency response, better quality overall. Check some images on how to setup a cardioid condenser microphone for best results.

Hi! first of all thanks for the explanation. Quick question, when you mention sub divs you basically are just smooth previewing your mesh by pressing number 3. Does this mean that when you are done modeling and want to export your mesh, as fbx or obj, you would have to apply an actual smooth with division level 2 for example? Thanks in advance for the help

No Sub D workflow is better suited for film/ vfx but could also work if you have a game with a higher polygon budget. Some shapes don't benefit that much from a sub d workflow, especially very straight and angular shapes. You could get a similar result from simply beveling an edge and your poly count would greatly be reduced.
