Maya Intro Polygon Modeling Tools for Beginners Tutorial

[@SPITFIRE_502]

I just started using Maya for the first time a couple of days ago with an educational license because I am starting school in January for my first semester in Animation.. It's going to be a long 4 year journey and I wanted to find tutorials so that I'm not going in completely blind. Your videos have been so helpful.. Thank you for this and the knowledge that you are sharing with everyone!! Please don't stop!!
