Fun with Maya!

As part of my desired skillset I began modeling a few weeks ago in Maya 2011. I'm picking the software up quickly, and with spring break I've had a chance to practice a little more. Here are two models I've been working on: a keyboard and a sword.

I'm still learning the basics, but I hope to be comfortable enough to make a variety of environmental or prop objects to help populate levels. I'm about to unwrap the sword and begin texturing, so the final version will appear in a later post.

As I said before, learning Maya is one prong of the forked skillset I'm trying to master. Next on the list is LUA scripting, which I hope to start learning at the end of March!
