Twisted Metal (Hard Surface Modelling)

Lets not smooth all the surfaces, there should have some twists in every story 😊

Honestly, when the challenge given in class my mind got twisted 😊 I started finding different ways how I can do it. I started doing it manually using cut tool. I thought there is no better way. Finally my supervisor introduced the tool. Wow, I never expected it would be that easy.

Maya provides us advance tool options. The path is given below to find the tool. With in moments the twisted metal is created. Now job is to secure the edges.

Deform > Non-Linear > Twist

By just adding some supporting edges we can secure the shape we created and our twisted model is ready.
