What was this for?
To re-learn how to use Maya and learn new skills that would be helpful when trying to create my idea in a 3D environment. A Lego man is simple/blocky but has smooth edges as well as a semi spherical head so it is simple yet complicated.
How was my experience so far?
So far I have created the head, torso and lower body parts. I have enjoyed this process and learned bountiful information when making this model. An example is the head. This was a tricky part of the model as it needed to be positioned properly as well as smoothed out but not too much as an Lego man head still has a blocky shape.
I initially struggled however with some guidance and repeating the steps myself I was able to persevere and make a product I was satisfied with.
