I have been working on this character rig for nearly 3 weeks. There is nothing special about it, but I'm new to rigging so it's taking a very long time. I was hoping to learn as I went along, but it's now getting to the stage where I really need to finish this. I'm looking for someone to finish...
Hi! Does anyone know how to use Maya to creat the effect of heat refraction?(I'm not sure if the term is correct, basically it means when you look at a very hot engine or look at the horizon in the desert, the air looks like boiling liquid) Is there any training videos about this in DT? Thanks...
