Work Over Summer

Have been reading a lot of Maya books I took from the library, just going over basic concepts like Modelling, Textures, Skinning, Rigging, Lighting and Rendering - with a little bit of animation. Am starting to get a pretty good grasp of what to do with Maya and how to use it to my best ability.

Been looking into zbrush a lot lately, and finally get some use out of the tablet I bought for photo shop about 2 years ago and never used! Most of the information I get for zbrush comes from the web, and have a few online books downloaded to keep me going, started getting in 3DS Max too - but think I will focus on Maya mainly for now as that's what my final project needs to be in.


Started doing some drawing with some basic autonomy books I found, just practicing drawing circles and lines to get my orientation and hand eye co-ordination better so I can start sketching out some ideas for the project. Hopefully will improve enough so that I can do a good job doing life drawing classes next year!
