This tutorial has 5.5 hours of content and is split into 2 parts. The first part will be a collection of short easy to understand chapters that will just cover individual tools. In the second part, you will take everything you have learned and combine it all together to create a quick model of some gears.
The mentor of the course notes that this game art tutorial is perfect for students who have some familiarity with a 3d Modeling tool like Blender or 3DS Max and want to learn Maya.
