If you want to learn how to use Maya’s NURBS modeling tools for animation, visual effects, and games, this DVD is for you!
This edition has been revised and expanded to include: creating boundary surfaces, sculpting with Maya Artisan, understanding UV surface coordinates, and much more!
Visual effects artists, Andrew Hazelden and Russell Hazelden, provide numerous tips for efficient modeling, including: how to keep objects organized using the layer editor, how to create accurate scale models using reference images, and countless time saving keyboard shortcuts.
All of the modeling techniques are then put to use in the final exercise which is creating an antique lantern using NURBS curves and surfaces. No steps are left out and every detail is explained, with easy to follow step-by-step instructions.
Maya: NURBS Modeling is a comprehensive resource that no artist should be without!

Warning: Be sure to scan all the downloaded files with your Antivirus and if there is an executable or installer file, make sure to have your antivirus active and open in the background while installing or running the app. Some of the materials posted here are downloaded from CGPeers, So they could potentially have something injected in them.
We always ask bloggers to scan all the files before publishing the posts, but sometimes it's hard to detect all these things, so if you found anything suspicious (Not false positive, Generic, Patcher, Riskware and Heuristic results, most patches could get false flags like that by some Antivirus companies.) be sure to post comments with the file name and a VirusTotal report result link or the file MD5 Hash (higher than 30% overall positive result). Thank you.
