Making An Object Of Our Own (in Maya)!

After experimenting a little but in Maya, and for me, trying to find solutions to several problems, we were then given the task to make an object of our choice. Nothing extremely complex, but nothing too basic either. Since I was gifted a record player for my birthday this year, I thought it would be the perfect object to make in Maya and in 3D, because it has so many features and so much depth!

These were the images as well as a visual reference in front of me, that I worked from:




From this, I was able to pick the right colours, surfaces and textures as well as shapes in order to create my desired object. I found that this time around it was SO much easier for me to find my way around the programme. What I mean by this was, because I hard come across so many errors in the last task, I had to myself, find a way to get around them or solve them. Therefore it made me more comfortable with the software and I was able to make this object is a good amount of time! I am really proud of this piece, and I like it a lot better than my trucks. My files did save and I was able to render in colour with no problem! And I actually really enjoyed making it, because I didn't have to struggle finding out what option was what. This was the final product:
