HAYOP NA TUTORIAL YAN, NAGPARASKIP LANG SA LAST PART AMPOTA. DAE LAMANG TIGPAHILING KUNG PANO TIGCONNECT ANG PAYO TAPOS ANG LIOG GARO KA BOTO NOY

Amazing! Having a reference image, and painting it on the model seems to be key for this. Thanks for sharing!

What about proper topology?

9 years later and this video is still amazing for noobs like myself

Thank You So Much For Showing Me How To Model A Human In Maya Professor Taylor!

hopefully you will see this comment --- I need help. Im following this tutorial and am up to the part where u extract the bottom faces at 6:00. But - when extracting all the individual faces become separate. But if i switch off separate faces in settings the entire thing stays as part of the main gun and doesnt extract. I separated them all and combined then back together but now it wont do the smooth mesh preview????

❤❤❤❤❤

i want this app to be alive and had million tutors. It is MUCH better than Zbrush.

bro casually saved my scolarship thank you james taylor you deserve more recognition

Great tutorial, thank you for your work

Can I use this method even when I want to sell the game-ready assets I make?

I got some troubles about the way you did some topology. In the cheeks area for example.there are loops kinda confused. But I generaly took a lots of good informations. Thanks for the job.

He has a body type like Brock Samson. Now I just want Patrick Warburton to voice a playable vault hunter.

Good tutorial master!! 🎉 Model graphic tablet? Thanks!

You doing good? It’s been almost a decade!

I’m currently making nightwing and this makes more sense then a cube

Why did you stop making videos sir?

I watch your videos daily because I also want to be like you.

Thanks for this great tutorial! Do you still use the same workflow today? Or do you start directly in Zbrush with a sphere?

Could you please explain how to bake delta mush

Years back, I always thought that it was just their lighting that created that amazing look, but no, they treated their models like a visual novel and drew in practically all the details. The last few games may not be well received, but damn is their visual style, so damn stylised and well done, absolutely love it for models.

Great video. I learned a whole lot! Thank you so much! You're really talented I'm sure you know!

I did this tutorial around 2016 as a way to learn 3D modelling and Maya so I could one day work professionally as a 3D artist in the game industry. I would come home after work, and do this tutorial over and over again until I memorized every step and detail, sometimes until 1-2am. Then get up and head to the job-site for 8:00 PM, doing labor work. Now, It's 2023 and I've worked for small indie studios, Disney and now at a AAA game studio as a 3D technical & environment artist. I still use the techniques in this video to this day. Thank you.

Did u make all of these with mouse?

THE BART, THE (IN GERMAN) :D

Man, i really hope you come back and make a video for IK/FK rigging the arms and legs. Im incredibly stumped at the moment. Random problems with joints rotating when I parent to controls, or connect the IKs, especially when there are more joints between the IK than your standard 3. Could use your insight on this subject.

This rocked! A few things i wish you would’ve covered when you were moving a little quickly but you can’t cover everything. Great tutorial.

Hey, what about the boob joints of the end?

sir really you are a boss of maya

How do we connect the body to the head?

Did you make this template available for download somewhere?

nice video sir, i would like to know how you brought a reference image at the initial part of the video

James, why not continue making these videos? You got some gems here, and they're still relevant and usable.

can anyone tell what he did on 18:18

why would you make the images behind a paywall on methodj..?

Are you gonna upload more videos later? you explain everything so simple, i learned everything from you, thank you 🤟

We miss you bro

Кто-нибудь поведайте мне, как сделать такой ШИКАРНЫЙ графон из начальной анимации???

maybe you can upload the full uncut version for free since its been 8 years and methodj is shutting down?

I have needed this help for so long, you have no idea how big a help this is for me, thank you so much!

Nandri nanba...

I am new to 3D modeling and I'm doing college classes for learning it, this video really helps with the assignment I'm which is making my own bodybuilder model XD.
