Create a Fantasy Sword: 3D Model in Maya 2020 (2/6)

[@NamTran-kx4zb]

Wow. It’s not boring. When I hear Scale, Extrude, or Face, deselect, bla bla. It’s helping me to record these commands in my mind. Thank you so much. That will help me so much.

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

That's good to hear. Thanks for letting me know. :)

[@julionunes2092]

Your videos are the best 🤣. Thank you a lot for the knowledge and the patience :)

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

My pleasure! Thank you for watching 😄

Hi! Been a fan of yours for a while now. This tutorial looks cool. I’m in the middle of my rigging summative but I think I might try give this a go when I finish the deadline on Friday. Just wanted to tell you to keep up the awesome work!!!

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Cool, thanks! Good luck on your rigging final!

[@fouadkaram7400]

Great tut. Thanks for taking the time and create those videos. I will share my best shortcut key (and love that in Maya) and it's G for last command. I think if you are doing lots of Ctrl-E then G will give your fingers a break :)

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Awesome Tip! Thank you!

Hi Monica, I have been modeling for over 10 years just like you and was curious why you are using a cube rather than a plane as you only have to extrude the edge rather than selecting and deselecting , Just exrude the plane after for the thickness, or is it a mattter of preferance as we all work different.... Anyway I was wondering why you don't have a course on Udemy Especially your workflow from Maya to ZBrush To Substance Painter it would be a Godsend for Begginers.

[@pravinkumarpandey9849]

its very simple way to learn with you thanks mam

[@ShenShoqRock]

Thank you for this great tutorial!

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for watching

[@brandonwood4824]

Don’t know if you’ve learnt this by now but you should put your reference image in a layer so you don’t accidentally move it

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Good tip! Thanks for sharing Brandon :)

@Academic Phoenix Plus How would one go by to create a paper scroll that can be rolled up and rolled out (short roll, 1-2 rounds wrapped around a core)? Do you have any pointers? (Not a toilet roll per say, but more like a ninja scroll, if you know what I mean.)

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

That's a cool challenge. Try the Bend deformer. I got over it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4SbqomGpL2JfcU

[@SS-cz5ri]

Pls upload next video I can't wait for it

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Part 3 is coming out on Wednesday! Keep an eye out!! :D

[@Hugebustah]

Can you upload YOUR reference EDIT? The one specifically you used that is already high resolution and cropped? The link leads to a low-resolution image that is hard to model after because of the extreme pixelation.

[@mr_vky]

This is brilliant, But I prefer, E to extrude, S to scale😎

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

lol! good idea :D

[@ankitaggarwal384]
