I see! I'm surprised you'd want to do another month on this as a lot of this seems complete to me already, but if thats what you want then all good. I'd like to see how much you can refine it. I know what you mean about the end of a project being time consuming. Makes me think of the 80 / 20 rule, where getting that last…
Thank you for your response! I was afraid if I mixed both of the style it wouldn't be 'cohesive'. And for beginner artists there's some kind of unspoken norm about how many can we show? In order to still look 'professional'. Tyler Edilin, the senior artist in the industry (on youtube as well), he mentioned 80% -20% rule,…
Was there ever a fix for this where the attribute editor stops responding?. You can still use the xgen tools and render, but attributes won't load automatically and the outliner is empty. I was hoping in maya 2026 they would have fixed it and no I am not going to delete my preferences , because that does not solve the…
I have a 24" and 20" and really, once you get over the fact that moving your mouse across the bottom of the 24 to the 20 will not work, and you need to move it up 200 pixels instead, its fine.

Hello again, thanks for the feedback and kind words @tricksterr and @omer_s ! The second part of this assignment is to make a few sketches with an ancient architectural style. I timed myself to stick below 20 minutes, though some of these are no more than 10 minutes. They're done without any direct reference, I'm just…

I have written a script which makes to manage FormLayouts easier. I want to share this if anyone could be interested. The FormLayout control is the most powerful but less accessible one as it requires more size, offset and ratio management codes. This script is designed to use FormLayouts as easy as PaneLayouts. With this…
Two Maya shading-graph chores I kept scripting, curious how others approach them: * Duplicating a shading network with clean names. Maya's duplicate/paste leaves pasted__ prefixes and number suffixes; I ended up walking the upstream graph and duplicating with unique, clean names instead. * Merging duplicate file-texture…
Hmm wiki links work fine for me. Note that the wiki uses http: instead of https: and some browsers complain about this, but it's nothing to worry about since we're not transmitting anything that needs security like that. Anyhow, I did a webinar thingy about anisotropy, explaining how it works, might help you, starting at…
