Maya Hard Surface Modeling - Mandalorian Helmet

By watching this video, you will learn my high-level approach to hard surface modeling techniques that include subD or subdivisions modeling, edge flow and topology, how to maintain clean topology, and how to model simple to complex objects in Maya. Keep in mind that I use Maya for this video, but the techniques can be applied to any 3D software. Enjoy!
