Introduction to Maya

(Video/Lesson 17 & 18)

This is my first summary over the Introduction to Maya project, and the screenshots are from videos/lessons 17 & 18, where after beginning to create the base shape of the ship, I extruded up the top section and created the canopy. This mainly involved the use of symmetry, the extrude tool, the multi-cut tool, scale tool, and move tool. Previously, I had created the basic body shape for the ship using the scale tool to match the model to the reference photo and extruded out the wings as well as cutting out specific parts to match the reference, using the target weld and bridge tools to make the model more accurate. Currently I am finishing part 18 and creating the canopy for the ship by moving vertices and extruding out specific parts of the model to reflect the reference photo.
