I've watched a bunch of tutorials in the last few hours, this is the first one that actually worked and did it in minutes. Thank you.

I love how comprehensively you cover these basic topics. there is just so much to learn about maya. I have used bump and diffuse maps but normal maps were like...alien symbols to me

True teachers are hard to come by thank you so much madam🥰

This tutorial is incredible and you are such a good teacher! Its paced super well and I actually feel like I understand why I am selecting the settings I am instead of just following along.

This is the best free software Ive seen. Respect.

I have to say after a whole summer of no work I was worried about all the different bits to a complete shader and working in hypershade again but watching these has really helped, also! Knowing that I don't have to attach all the different nodes in hypershade like, roughness and difference and I can just use the ai standard surface tab to find all the subsections for them was just invaluable thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏

Broo! You explained this soo perfectly! This is wayy better than some of the explanations I have seen on YouTube

[bvladimirpl]

You are so clear to explain complex things. Appreciate it!

[alexjohnson]

Thankyou so much for creating this! The comprehensiveness of it is fantastic. When learning a software like Maya I feel some tutorials assume you know certain settings you should select when a lot of the time you do not. You have helped me with something I have been stumped on for a while. Great tutorial!

1:00 Normals look like a rainbow because each pixel contains 2 values: X gradient and Y gradient. They're plugged into R and B channels, hence the colorful look. The normal has no depth information, but some can be calculated via integration
