How to create a moving Tentacle using Procedural animation.

What I'm going to do is try and show you the main steps of how I made my "Male Green Frog" image. I used Maya 8 for modelling, MentalRay for rendering and Photoshop for the textures.

This article covers a slightly extended range of phoneme mouth shapes, based originally on the Preston Blair series.

This video is a different approach to wine glass modelling. It's not the best idea for modelling a wine glass in maya but it is a great practice for smooth surfaces

I will summarize the workflow I used for one of my characters with lots of images and some print-screens directly from the applications used (Maya/Mudbox/Photoshop, etc ...), also at the end I will provide some info about tangent space normal maps so you could think of this tutorial as primarily normal mapping related stuff.
