You are right, but am loving this experience, I wish I listen to my self by starting this earlier enough say March, I would have graduated since to animation but I don't want to feel bad, am battling between time as a teacher and lesson and Maya and light and it's disrupting my daily work flow and I will equally encourage others not to give up, for me, I have a path am following, I already have the end in mind that am so interested in modeling and not even the renders, infact my trainer always turn down my work if it is not on lambert in his words am not guiding you on texture or rendering or lighting those are separate departments just as modeling, count 1first and now am seeing how truly it is. With regards to curve models don't use box method use the curve tools and use your reference, that's the easiest, I have a lot of collection of what I will be modeling and animals and human are part of it. My good friend do not be intimidated with others and their renders, the true is that we know ourselves, this path is always a journey and never a destination. Maya is sweet, is simple to adapt and many myths about it makes people go for other 3d,but the same workflow and I ask why go for soft drink instead of water when you are thirsty and the answer I got was quite amazing, life is about choice and choice comes with price
scilover:
I'm using Maya for my 3d modeling subject. but the truth is it is very difficult every time you started to do things with lots of curves. like a duck? a man? It really tests my patience.

thanks for your feedback
Dlee1:
Nice modeling but the finishing is where you are getting it wrong. There is a no reflection of shadow on most of your project. Improve on the lighting aspect...

The lighting is so high though.

Give credit when due for other's people work, saw so many repetitive art work trace over except If this is your own definition of creativity, by now it should be clear to you that the Internet is a smaller world.

Shout out to you for following and observing as well and to many others that have supported this thread by means of viewing, whatsapp messages and comments, thanks and thanks a million time.
Yes, starting on Monday, a new modeling series will kick start and I will implement the use of lights and shadows and even experiment with a new renderer that I have never used before.
I Understand that this is a clarion call to step up the game after clocking 30days with the software, so I am accepting the challenge.
chipsypop:
Nice one but your renders lack shadow, work on your lighting. Also learn how to use normal maps
