lol i'm not even 18 and when i started i just winged it,ya know fool around with it.without even reading the manual i made a toon apple.the down side is thats befor i learned about groups it tok 5 models to make it lol.but just do at least most of the tutuorals in the book then just start from there.it helps to have ok drawing skills.my first real model turned out exactly how i drew back then(a year ago i'm much better now)and thats a bad thing.and if you in school try using a:m for school projects.heak open a buisness if you want.just goof off and get familiar with every thing.and read some tutorals.

 

oh and about the bone thing it about what realated to what...like for in stance.

thigh

----calf

-------ankle

------------toes

in this form when the thigh moves the calf ankle and foot move too.all you have to do is right click the boon and hit attach bone icon on the right

 

oh and if you wanna know how to model a body just look at the models in the built in library, just cheak the tutoral resourse area, or download one take caution of what you download.

 

 

it was for a project

[hair and fur]

wow O_o i didn't know a:m could do that.

[do you have to have the cd in to use a:m]

my mom would ask me to do work for her some times.and i don't like to take the cd out.

[Argh! copy-flip-attach not working...]

try making sue that the face is right next to the y line and in the middle of the x line, that always works for me.oh and that all the cps(Control points)are ritgh on the line or right behind,if one cp gose past it just edit the model til every thing is straight.

[do you have to have the cd in to use a:m]

do you have to have the cd in to use a:m. i have nother software i use with it and it requires a cd too
