Romain Chauliac released BrickIt, a new plugin for Maya that will allow you to build Lego models with that same iconic look.
Please note that is the first version of BrickIt. Everything is working fine and it comes with a lot of basic bricks. Still, the artist is working on future updates with new bricks and features.
You can also benefit from a lower early price which may increase after updates.
Future updates:
Frequent addition of new bricks
More Materials
Technic Library
Decals Tab
Minifig Tab
Timelapse animation
BrickIt is said to be working in Maya 2018 and higher for Windows, MacOs and Linux.
