I'm returning to 3D modelling after over a year.. with the goal of building a car Chassis for a mate's Lamborghini model.. cheers Mike for the perfect return/warm up to get me ready!

[@MHTutorials3D]

Very welcome

[@agamergirl9801]

are you kidding me? i have to hand in a model bike in maya with no preveous knowlige of the program in two days and you just semi-saved my life.

[@MHTutorials3D]

I actually did a tutorial way back on bike wheels. If you take that you are 90% set

[@liamstevens6970]

lel same. Are you trying to get accepted at NHTV in Breda?

[@MHTutorials3D]

you are my great teacher!
Thank you very much.

[@MHTutorials3D]

Thank you for watching my videos !

[@nikunjmajithia701]

Hi Mike how is it going i'm a bit confused sorry near the begging on the cube on the far right why did you add 4 edge loops instead of 3 as you added one at the bottom of the second one , and i struggle at 3d moddeling so could you please upload more videos that have front side and top view of the object being modeled that may improve my modelling but thanks for the videos.
cheers

[@Rafacos22]

yeaaaaahh
thanks again for your job

[@MHTutorials3D]

Thanks

[@funkyfresh7901]

you asked if anyone knew why when you double click on a face and it doesnt select the section but just the individual piece. you may have double geo along the path or your whole model might have been duplicated. i find that can happen when brigding. i dont know if that helps or you alreadyfigured it out as i just watched theses tutorials. thank you always a big help.

[@peshwazmuhammad9664]

thanks for your totorial

[@augustinedumont1000]

Hello mike, I was wondering if you could make a tutorial on angelic wings, thanks

[@zigzthefox]

I'm literally working on a bike for my portfolio class, and this had to be the video that would have helped out a few weeks ago.

[@MHTutorials3D]

Sorry I'm late

[@zigzthefox]

It happens, but its cool to know that you will be making one now. Maybe I'll make another bike but I'll see how you make it.

[@dszarts]

[@MHTutorials3D]

Thank you

[@hakanmenderes2441]

thanks. your works so teachful.

[@MHTutorials3D]

[@krisle99]

You are my modeling savior! Are you going to UV it in future part?

[@MHTutorials3D]

Probably not as all the shapes are pretty basic and the process would take way too long for a tutorial

[@miutops7151]

sir please we need tutorials for any of car full tutorial like you do

[@learnwithaqsa2]

really nice work

[@MHTutorials3D]

Thanks a lot!

[@dotJPJP]

Hey Mike! Love all your videos and techniques. At 2:26 i select the face hit extrude and W, the cube as a whole moves instead of only the face. Any reason why

[@MHTutorials3D]

Make sure ""keep faces together" is turned off

[@rajuahmmed515]

[@nikunjmajithia701]

Hi Mike I'm a bit lost sorry so three part question at 9:50 you merged the top vertex to the other bottom vertex and at 10:02 it looks like the top vertex merges with the top vertex why did you do them differently sorry?
and i know this is the right way but after that why do you merge three vertex together when i tought it could be done one by one like top vertex to bottom vertex and top verte with top vertex 10:32 sorry really lost here

[@javieruria1466]

thank you teacher !!!

[@MHTutorials3D]

You are welcome Javier

[@Vany18796]

I got a question!
I saw there is a free mental ray render version for maya17 now. i downloaded the package and have problems by put it into the right directory. can you maybe make a little video explaining that?

[@MHTutorials3D]

Vanessa. I am not sure if that will help a lot of people but if you email me directly ( [e-mail] ) I will help you oot

[@jordicorteskarting]

Hey mike, do you know if there is any way to make an animation render from Arnold on Maya '17? The animation is a basic 360º rotation. Thank you!

[@MHTutorials3D]

From Arnold on Maya 17 ??

[@Mr.FXhindiOriginal]

[@elvisike3110]

thanks chief. your tutorials are great. Please i used zbrush for sculpting, can you make a tutorial on how set up a human character base mesh in maya for a game work flow. thanks

[@MHTutorials3D]

Hi Ike, I don't do characters, sorry

[@elvisike3110]

ok thanks. please can you show me how to animate rig and animate humanoids characters; including facials expressions will be more helpful? i can upload a character if you want. thanks

[@dalyzee]

great vid Mike :) but why didn't you do the frame with a cube instead of a polygon cylinder

[@MHTutorials3D]

Because it gives me more control

[@jpadilla2754]

hi can you help me? im doing my thesis i need a script in maya that will make joints to the selected verts pleasee

[@stazzeldskater]

how do you scale using "R" ? Doesn't work for me... do you hold R down or press it once?

[@cescperez7138]

The image doesn't import right to maya

[@tusharsaha9787]

Sir please do a car modelling video..

[@omazuera]

Why after doing the bridge thing in 12:10 it doesn't work like that for me. It connects everything in some kind of pyramid.

[@MHTutorials3D]

Reset your Bridge tool first. It sound like you have twist turned on

[@nikhilpanchal1737]

Mike Hermes in maya 2014 the bridge option is coming in pyramid type only.. any solution ???

[@RicaMaeValero]

I have the same problem, even though the twist is 0. (Maya 2016)

[@dokyeomentary8832]

My mesh turns green when I bridge it

[@SusheelReddy87]

Can u model guns and cars please.... Could not find entire videos anywhere.... I luv the explanation style of urs by the way..

[@artbybigvee]

[@nikunjmajithia701]

Hi Mike really sorry i did do -0.01 for the thickness it still destroys the model sorry with positive 0.01 thickness too as in sorry i said the wrong thing the faces don't turn inside out but some things are sticking out of the faces

[@MHTutorials3D]

There is no way for me to know without knowing exactly what you did :-)

[@nikunjmajithia701]

Mike Hermes sorry

[@nikunjmajithia701]

Mike Hermes sorry could I still continue without it being thicm as I'm continuing on

[@MHTutorials3D]

For what ?

[@nikunjmajithia701]

cycle

[@nikunjmajithia701]

when i came to extrude part near the last 3 minutes it turns my faces inside out sorry

[@MHTutorials3D]

Then your starting point is reversed. Use a negative extrude value

[@nikunjmajithia701]

Mike Hermes oh cool thanks

[@nikunjmajithia701]

Mike Hermes sorry did you understand my vertex question
