This set shows and teaches you how to model in Maya using high polygon techniques in order to create complex hard surface models. In this tutorial you are shown how to create a science fiction carrier ship, Ultimax Apocolypse. During this tutorial you are shown the techniques of creating high polygon models, application of detail and use of subdivision and smoothing techniques in order to create the finished model that you see below. Following creation of the piece, smaller fighter ships are created and then the scene is rendered and composited onto a backplate created in Photoshop.
