Polygon Modeling in MayaPolygon Modleing overview
Polygon modeling is the most used and mature technique of modeling in any graphics software. Before the growth of NURBS and subdivisions, it was Polygon Modeling with what the great modelers of the Hollywood, Cartoon Industry (Walt Disney) and Game Industry have been preparing countless eminent and popular models. Polygons are a sort of geometry you can bring into play to create 3-dimensional models in Maya or in any other 3D Software. The other geometry types, that Maya makes available for modeling in 3D are NURBS and subdivision surfaces.
Polygons are straight shapes have three or more than three sides characterized by 3-dimensional points that are called vertices in Maya and the straight and direct lines that attach or connect those points, are called edges in Maya. The core region of the polygon is known as face. Vertices, edges, and faces are the basic elements of polygons. You pick and adjust or modify polygons using these basic elements, vertices, edges and faces, that are generally called polygon’s components. When you model with polygons you typically use 3 sided polygons called triangles or four-sided polygons called quads. Maya also holds up the formation of polygons with more than four sides called N-gons but they are not so frequently used for modeling. An independent polygon is generally called a face, and is characterized as the area leaped by 3 or more vertices and their linked edges. When a lot of faces are connected jointly they make a network of faces called a polygon mesh or poly object. You craft your 3D polygonal models by polygon meshes. Polygon meshes can be modeled using a diversity of techniques. Below, you'll find video trainings on Polygon Modeling in Maya
