Dropped by to say after being self taught in Maya for about 10 years your channel is introducing me to things I never knew existed in Maya! Subbed

My favorite deformer is the Nonlinear bend. It's super useful for making complicated cylindrical shapes. Just model everything in a flat plane, then apply a nonlinear bend and you have a nice looking cylinder.

Strangely enough, the shrinkwrap deformer did not work for me the way you taught it. I ended up in the attribute editor for the cube shrinkWrap1, setting the projection to "Closest"' and set the target smooth level to 3, and then it worked and looked lovely. Working in Maya 2020. Wonder why that happened.

Hey! is there any reason that my shrink wrap doesn't want to snap to the original sphere mesh? I tried another workflow using the sphere as a live surface and it more or less worked the same. Just wondering why my deformer isn't doing what I want it to do. Thanks for the tutorials!

@art_o_maniac7984 2 жыл бұрын

i have a doubt .... once we import these models into zbrush and when we subdivide it the model is shrinking... how to avoid that from happening? and also how to export models into substance painter in smooth (3 mode) mesh ??

@mitholyrics 4 жыл бұрын

How did you smooth out this model at final. I have seen the obj file that you provided and it was so good. I have problem with smoothing in maya. It creates weird edges.

@kurushmasalawala2852 3 жыл бұрын

Can you please change your background grey colour because the model and background are somewhat of same colour so when you do the work the edges and the loops aren't clearly visible

Hi, i was just wondering what kind of level we students had to be to get a job, like all i have been learning from KZfaq tutorials, how does one's skills differ(self taught) from school taught students and ready professionals, can you do a video about level of work in a portfolio to get hired?

@topologicaldoctor1498 5 жыл бұрын

Hey JL great Tut man but I have seen people making hard surface stuff using triangles and even with N-gons (Boolean workflow)and I have been doing the same subdivision method that you are doing since the last 2 years for hard surface assets so felt that it is easy to get the sharp shapes with the boolean workflow, of course, we have to do the cleanup later.i just want to know what u prefer between doing a boolean workflow and cleaning up so that we can subdivide it or what if we don't want to hit the 3 buttons in Maya because there are no subdivision in-game engines.i just wanna what method do you prefer.

I have a general hard-surface question. How do you finish your models in hard surface? I mean you use smooth preview all the time, but you obviously can't deliver a hard surface model to the surface artist like this. Do you apply "smooth" after your are completely done modeling, and finalize? And I guess UV's come after this smoothing, right?

@marcomanola6225 5 жыл бұрын

Gurhan Gunay you can duplicate the model, smooth one so you have a high poly and a low. UV the lower poly one as of course it is easier to UV low poly models, then transfer those UVs to the higher poly model, aslong as you didn’t change the geometry between the two it works great.

@Gurani 5 жыл бұрын

@@marcomanola6225 Thank you. I usually finish UV's before applying the last smoothing. But I really don't like to lose the control of poly count after applying Smooth.

@jlmussi 5 жыл бұрын

I will UV the model on the lowest level and generate my UV shells. Apply a level 1-2 smooth. Unfold my shells without packing. Export to substance painter to texture. Render in I-ray for quick presentation or export textures back into Maya.

There's a much simpler way to create a sphere with better topology. It starts with a cube again: 1. Select all edges of your cube 2. Bevel using a fraction of 1 and increase the segments to your desired poly count 3. There will be hidden faces along the centre edges of your sphere, you just need to select and delete them Congrats on your new sphere.

Turns out you can save even more time by just smoothing the cube. Today I learned.
