Maya Study Task 1- Truck Modeling

Getting used to Maya was not an easy task. The program is by virtue quite difficult in that there is a lot more involved in working in a three dimensional space as opposed to a two dimensional space. A lot of the time I was sure I had a certain object at a certain space but I was wrong. It was also a bit of a headache getting used to using the tools and the platform but that is true for any program that is newly being introduced.

 
Edges, vertices and faces 

WER: W - move along the grid in a straight line
E - rotate
R - scale

Having a Homomorphic and perspective
 view of my work made it a lot easier to keep up with where my objects were and where they needed to go.

 Thus I began building a truck. It wasn't too difficult to follow Mat's tutorial although I did need his help a few times. Like I said before, the difficulty came mainly from my unfamiliarity with the program.

Here is my truck:
