This is the clearest Maya tutorial I've watched, easy to understand. But this is the only Maya tutorial I can find on your channel 😭😭

[TheLillianYoung]

I stumbled upon this and wasn't going to follow along because I thought that it was too simple a model but I had some down time and decided to follow along. I've used Maya since 2020 and still learned something useful from this. Thumbs up and I have subscribed.

Extremely Helpful, Deserves way more likes. Instructions were extremely clear and it even shows you how to properly freeze transformation in the end which is very useful.
