Wazzup?! Welcome to my channel. I am a 3D character animator and TD with around two decades of experience using 3D software. I've worked on all types of projects including feature films, TV series, web games, and table games.
Current plans for this channel include releasing weekly beginner to intermediate tutorials covering topics dealing with animating and rigging in Autodesk Maya, but I might sneak in some general art related videos along the way.
I have also found an apprentice, and am working towards releasing everything I teach him from the ground up.
I make table top games as a hobby, and for the last 5-ish years I have been developing an animated TH-cam channel as my main passion project, and will share more on that and how to do it yourself once I have it public! :)
Let's make some cool stuff!

this works for me the first time, but now...well....the second time is faster than the first time i guess 😂😂😂🤧🤧🤧🤧
Yeah, mine crashed a couple times today too. no crash files. :( Have you turned on autosave? Preferences-->Files/Projects-->Autosave--> Enable It is worth a try if your system keeps crashing :)
useful
by the way, I not recommend changing unit system due some calculations errors. Maya works good only on centimetres
Great Quality content, you deserve more subs.
Thank you. I appreciate that :)
Wow that worked. Thank you so much 🙏
Alot of thanks (from Egypt). You saved my day
@@shaimaa-elnagar5718 awesome!!
Great video! I was struggling with it because I'm used to hiding and unhiding geo very easily in Blender and couldn't find a way to unhide the geometry I hid by pressing H. The Shift + I shortcut has been a life saver haha x)
@@ngonjuan thanks. It has been pointed out to me that Ctrl+1 is another combo that does the same thing as Shift+i.
@@SquamashiiTutorials Good to know then😎 thanks for the heads up 🤓
That was low key genius. Lol
Haha thanks
LIFESAVER! Thank you so much. Love the content! : ))
@@meow-e4x thanks. I appreciate it
Exactly what I was searching for, Thank you : ]
You're welcome. Glad you found it helpful :)
Thank you so mch
You're welcome!
Great tutorial! Would this setup work for FK arms following world too? I found it very effective but I wonder if there is may be a simpler way?
Thanks, and Yes! It works to add a space switch to any existing FK control on a rig. I do it this way so that I still have a control to manipulate, but you could add the attribute to the actual existing control and then do the constraints on the group/node above thee control. I just like to build my own so that I know there are not extra nodes in the mix that might give me unpredictable results
@@SquamashiiTutorials Awesome, thanks for your quick answer! Looking fwd to watch more of these. Suggestion: constraints for two handed weapons.
bro its worked for me i got my file thanks you
Awesome!!!
why does everything just seem to not work for me.
I'm sorry, Sometimes Maya is cruel!

Very informative thanks for this technical tutorial.....
You’re welcome!
thnks sir, your are resoulve my problem
Thank you for the video, but a small pointer: you need to normalise your audio, it's very quiet and hard to hear. Audio normalisation is a new and free feature in Davinci Resolve, if that's the NLE you use, one toggle box and it's normalised for YT on the export page.
Thank you! I have been wanting to find ways to improve my audio. I am going to look into this. I have dabbled in Davinci Resolve, so maybe this is what I have been seeking. Thanks again for the tip!
Lifesaver! After hours of searching for a fix with no luck. Thank you!

I love you

Now I'm invested. I'll see you at 1000 seconds now.
Haha, thanks Kyle. 😆 1000 seconds is in the works!
I will definitely try Sri.
Thank u 🎉
still doesnt work when mesh is a medium poly
You could export your dense model as a GPU cache, then quad draw over that
@@SquamashiiTutorials I've tried that, but when generating a single quad with shift click it still takes forever. I have to retopo dragging edges from the existing geo, if u get what I mean.
