Maya Modeling Tutorials

ravvy

Hey guys - I've searched the forums and cant find anything which means either there arent any posts about this already (which I dont believe) or I'm an idiot. Lets go for the latter shall we?

I'm currently an animator, and want to start being able to make my own models/rigs in Maya as thats what my work use at the moment. Are there any decent getting started guides for modeling in Maya? I was hoping to find some tutes linked from the polycount news page but its all being shifted around at the moment so I cant find anything :P

Try looking at 3d Buzz. There's lots of vids to download, from the very basics to rigging etc, and a maya specific community to as questions of.
