Rolex Daytona


Hey folks, as soon as I thought I was free to work on my personal projects, I got muddled up with my life and have been quite busy. Anyhow, I have been working on some little personal development projects in my spare time, as part of it, I have been working on my Maya. I must include that in order to improve my Maya skills I have to follow tutorials, right?... So here are the links towards the tutorial which I used and the results of my follow up of the tutorial.

A small info about the author of the Rolex Daytona Tutorial.

Part 1



I believe there are about 50 videos on this tutorial on YouTube under his YouTube account (-PixelBahn-) Obviously I won't be able to share all the 50 or so videos on my blog, however you can navigate yourself towards the rest of the video tutorials, once you find him on YouTube. He has plenty of great Maya tutorials, and by far his tutorial skills was so much easier to follow - without having naps during the process.

Here are couple of images to share with you all, my version from the tutorial. Still work in progress... ^_^

I hope everyone has had a great turn out for this year and I would like to say kudos to all the people who were born in 87' because this year is our year, it is the Year of the Rabbit :-)
