Vase
To begin learning 3D animation and modelling in Maya we started be creating a vase. Below is the reference image I used. I picked this one as the vase has a very simple shape and seemed like a nice and easy starting point as I have never used Maya or any other 3D modelling software before.
Overall I found the process quite interesting and informative, teaching me a lot about how to create things in Maya. I did struggle at first when adding in the reference images however I found actually shaping and modelling the vase to be fairly simple. Below are images of my final outcome which I am very pleased with.
