Thank you for the demo. I completed the Celtic ring step by step followed your direction. Thank you very much. It's fun. I am 54 years old, but I am still learning Maya.
I really enjoyed this tutorial!! Sadly I had my ring built but for some reason Maya/my computer did not like it. It kept slowing down on me!!! Thank you though!!
Mike you really are the best out there. I know you've already made your own weapon model but could you make a realistic ak model and makrov side arm together on a soldier. The soldier can be one from the internet if you dont want to make one (or you can make one if you want) because i know a human model is time consuming and a bit more of a challenge, but I just want to know how to make the weapons and how to attach it the soldier realisticly
Austin Johnson Hi Austin, modeling an AK can be as much work ( or more ) than modeling a character. I have a very long list of requests but actually the AK is already on it. So I will see what I can do, Mike
At 5:44 the placement would have been easier if you snapped the celtic ring and the pipe to the grid (you know, by holding X), wouldn't it? Pipe or thorus are equivalent in this case or is there a particular reason why you chose the pipe and then rounded it?
Nice tut, thank you Mike, question, one step further, I used IBL quite some time ago for a jewell all went very well.... upto the moment I needed a baked texture of it... Used material MIA_X just as you showed, in render perfect result as I wanted, bake, fractions and doesn't make much sense at all. Would really love to see some tut about that topic. Time to take that project out of the fridge again. Thank you :)
Mike Hermes Hi Mike, thanks for your answer, yes I did to a light bake. One thing I can try is to add more subdivisions just for the bake. That should eliminate some lines that occur but still the bake is pretty bad
TheBritishPotato If you are sure you had the same settings that is pretty much impossible unless your system doesn't have the memory ( graphics ) to display the result properly.
Thank you so much. Your tutorials are clear, amazing and straight to the point.
Amazing. Learning a bit of Maya at college and have learn't more watching this than I have in the last 4 weeks!
Glad I can help

Pipe or thorus are equivalent in this case or is there a particular reason why you chose the pipe and then rounded it?
Stefano Rolando Yes I know but in this case I didn't

How do you make all your projects looks so shiny and good looking? Mine always look really bland and just not what I want them to look like :P
Nice tut, thank you Mike, question, one step further, I used IBL quite some time ago for a jewell all went very well.... upto the moment I needed a baked texture of it...

Thank you :)
Zed Tremont Hi Zed, so you baked the texture but did you also do a light bake to include the IBL light ?
Mike Hermes Hi Mike, thanks for your answer, yes I did to a light bake. One thing I can try is to add more subdivisions just for the bake. That should eliminate some lines that occur but still the bake is pretty bad

+TheBritishPotato also it only takes about 30 secs to render?
TheBritishPotato If you are sure you had the same settings that is pretty much impossible unless your system doesn't have the memory ( graphics ) to display the result properly.
TheBritishPotato Could be, it is not a complicated render
Your vids are awesome. If it is not too much to ask, could you make a 3D model of a virus? :-)
