Researching……
Trying make my life easier, I decided to search for some quick and easy way to model my object. Haha…
Sadly, most of them I found is that, you needed to place a picture of the object that you are modeling into the Maya…and, well…I do not want to do that because……its cheating?(no offense)
Here’s the video to one of the modeling that I found:
Yes, it does seem simple, all the person did is just by extruding and using the vertex to shape up the gun, and I got to admit: its good.
Sooooo, based on this, I am going to do the same to my object, which is extruding and moving the vertexes as mentioned in my previous post.
I will not be placing the picture inside in Maya as I wanted to see what my eyes actually sees. Sounds a bit confusing huh? In other words, I will be modeling my object just by looking at my object. With a picture in Maya, you will be able to follow each and every line, however, will our eyes do the same? This is what I wanted to test.

You are SUPPOSED to use a picture of the object you are modeling as a reference! It is not cheating. We did cover this in class
