Thanks 👍 Here is a playlist of Maya tutorials on the channel Maya Tutorials: th-cam.com/play/PL8G4GiXpgTvIF6mZav8besvx4mijnioav.html More Maya modeling tutorials will be on the way this spring
I stumbled upon this and wasn't going to follow along because I thought that it was too simple a model but I had some down time and decided to follow along. I've used Maya since 2020 and still learned something useful from this. Thumbs up and I have subscribed.
Happy to hear it was useful, I'm always learning new things from other folk,s Seems like as you learn more you realize all the other things there are still to learn 👍
One of the best tutorials I've ever seen. Very easy to follow and explained very comprehensively. Honestly better than 75% of the course I just took. Thanks!
Extremely Helpful, Deserves way more likes. Instructions were extremely clear and it even shows you how to properly freeze transformation in the end which is very useful.
thank you man!! had to choose a random object to render for my intro to 3D models class and I chose my coffee mug. Your tutorial helped me complete my low poly assignment in like 30 minutes!
After you make your quads at 2:09 your cylinder divided into a grid but mine stays uncut. All the changes I made only remain on the bottom… I’ve been stuck for two hours idk how to fix this 😢
At 6:42, I can't see the curve in the outliner...There are the other stuff like defaultlightset and defaultobjectset though( I selected smooth path + curve and I am able to see the curve in wireframe mode)
Here is a playlist of Maya Tutorials Maya Tutorials: th-cam.com/play/PL8G4GiXpgTvIF6mZav8besvx4mijnioav.html more Maya Tutorials are in the works, let me know what you want to learn about 👍
@@WhatMakeArt Thanks!! I'm checking the list. That looks awesome. I'm going to go through all. I'd love if you could do tutorial on rigging if at all that's the subject for you.
There are a couple simple ball rigging videos in that playlist to get you started but I assume you mean character rigging I have some character rigging videos I'm the worjs
th-cam.com/video/-KhoMBOqx0g/w-d-xo.html This shows the 3D cut and sew, not on a coffees cup but you would use the same technique and then put your image on the uv I'll eventually make a uv tutorial for a coffee cup 🍵
The Bridge edge loop tool used like in this tutorial, is that possible in blender? I know Blender has Bridge edge loop, but I can't find a option to make the handle automatically?
Im faced with the issue of when I attempt to translate my mug in any direction, the curve of the handle seems to want to stay where I initially created it. It's pretty weird. I've tried connecting the two (mug and handle curve) but nothing seems to be helping. Any ideas? I am new to maya lol. Thank you!
After you get the coffee mug the way you want it, duplicate it and hide it so you have a backup, then on the one that you want to use, delete the history and freeze all the transformations and it should just become a normal mesh in Maya
It's not in any of the tabs at the top? Do you have the attributes open? If You are working on a small screen such as a laptop. It may be off to the side
Pressing the shift key and the period key grows a selection in Maya. This can help make selections of faces or edges Here is an Autodesk help article about growing selections in Maya help.autodesk.com/view/MAYAUL/2016/ENU/?guid=GUID-475A975C-DE5E-4D6A-AE60-D8B8E24F74E2
Modeling with quads can help with subdivision and defamations in animation, granted this object wouldn't be deformed but it could be so just a good practice. Inside the mesh can be hollow so the vertices don't need to be connected together.
3ds Max user getting into Maya here. Is all this use of keyboard shortcuts "the Maya way" to do things or are there more "Max" ways to do things? And the other way around, were there so many keyboard shortcuts in Max I never used? I was kinda comfortable with having a named button I could click on and then use whatever this button did. Maya reminds me more of ZBrush than Max. Give me your lights people!
Yeah, there are a lot of keyboard shortcuts in Maya, not required to use them but can make workflows go quicker I think in Maya there are so many keyboard shortcuts to help with different use cases, some of the keyboard shortcuts I can't imagine ever remembering unless I did that action all the time, but there might be a workflow where you do that all the time and that keyboard shortcut saves you five mouse clicks
@@WhatMakeArt Thanks for the quick reply! I guess a cheat sheet in front of me will help for the first weeks. I can see Maya is powerful in modeling although I read many articles that say Max is better for modeling - like Maya is better for animation, but I think modeling is also powerful with Maya.
When you are in object mode press the number 4 on your keyboard and it will go to wireframe There is also an icon in the toolbar that allows you to go to wireframe

when i try to bridge handle, maya says this: : Maya cannot process the selected edges because the meshes being bridged must be combined into a single mesh, or the number of selected edges is not the same for origin and target, or the selected faces are not on the outside border of the mesh.

Can someone explain to me why after I made this cup, I checked my poly count and it was 14k? This was the only object I had selected and on my scene. There is no way my cup had 14000 faces.
I have figured out the issue, in case anyone comes across this again. I had pressed 3 and was in smooth mode. When I pressed 1 and went back to polygon mode, my poly count was 800. Thank you for this tutorial.

Thanks glad it helped ☕
what do I do if when I use the bridge tool to make the handle it goes inside?
In the options on the bridge tool in Maya change the direction to custom and try the different settings for source and target + or -
Im faced with the issue of when I attempt to translate my mug in any direction, the curve of the handle seems to want to stay where I initially created it. It's pretty weird.

when i tried to delete the surface to create handle its becoming circle instead of hexagon. what should i do?
You likely have the smooth preview on, try pressing 1 on your keyboard
6:45 I can’t find the curve under pcylinder1
Maybe try a new model file to remove variables?
I tried still no curve 1
It's not in any of the tabs at the top? Do you have the attributes open? If You are working on a small screen such as a laptop. It may be off to the side
really good tutorial that helped me learn very important shortcuts :)

modeling ☕👍
Thank you for sharing this tutorial
Welcome 👍☕
Thank you so much this video is the best so helpful!!
Glad it helped 👍☕
the problem is the curves get changes when im trying to change position or to animate it how to solve this issues
Delete the history, but make a hidden copy first if you want to be able to edit it later
very helpful, great directions clear and very organized!
Glad it helped 👍☕
what is shift periode ?
Pressing the shift key and the period key grows a selection in Maya. This can help make selections of faces or edges
Here is an Autodesk help article about growing selections in Maya help.autodesk.com/view/MAYAUL/2016/ENU/?guid=GUID-475A975C-DE5E-4D6A-AE60-D8B8E24F74E2
@@WhatMakeArt ohh now I get it.. I don't know the period key but I search it.. period key means (>.) This key right? Full stop key right
why did you make quads at the bottom and doesnt it matter if you didnt connect rest of those vertices above and below??
Modeling with quads can help with subdivision and defamations in animation, granted this object wouldn't be deformed but it could be so just a good practice. Inside the mesh can be hollow so the vertices don't need to be connected together.
ah alright👍
For some reason, when I adjust the curve it doesn't change the shape of the handle. Does anyone have a way I can troubleshoot this? Much love!
Did you delete history?
Great tutorial!!! Thanks

I'm not sure that with such amounts of extrusions you have proper topology. However, for beginners, tutorial is nice!
Yes, many ways to go about topology in Maya, this method keeps everything as a quad, but there are other ways to make a coffee cup

when i try to bridge handle, maya says this: : Maya cannot process the selected edges because the meshes being bridged must be combined into a single mesh, or the number of selected edges is not the same for origin and target, or the selected faces are not on the outside border of the mesh.
Check that all the vertices are merged and welded

did anybody else have issues with the smoothing segment cuz I give it thickness to it but the bottom tends to mess up
Double check that when using the multi-cut tool you didn't make a vertex right next to another vertex

Looks like I should stick to blender
Both Maya and Blender have their pluses and minuses
blender best
Blender is great at 3D modeling too, been meaning to do a coffee cup tutorial for blender as well
Wtf!! Maya is way easier than blender
Both have parts that are easier than the other but everyone will tend to prefer one or the other

What do you need help with?
transitioning from blender to maya, and let me just say... I hate maya lol
I use Blender and Maya and other 3D modeling software, each has its pain points and good points
Love the modifier stack in Blender
Love the Mash network in Maya
Most of the friction comes from needing to learn new muscle memory, but in the best to be good at the theory and concepts of 3D modeling and then you can use any software
Too fukcing fast

Wow, is Maya just terrible for making models? I could make a cleaner object in 3D Studio in a 1/10 the time, with 1/5th the polygons.
