Hi Maya students,

   Today we did a portion of the tutorial on Polygonal Modeling.

   That tutorial just has one lesson, but the lesson has 21 parts.

   http://www.cs.uni.edu/~jacobson/maya/wks7_8/HelmetTutorial.html

   Help > Tutorials      Polygonal Modeling
                             Lesson 1 Modeling a polygonal mesh

   We got through only 8 of the 21 parts.

       1. Introduction
       2. Setting modeling preferences
       3. Using 2D reference images
       4. Creating a polygon primitive
       5. Modeling in shaded mode
       6. Model symmetry
       7. Selecting components by painting
       8. Selecting edge loops

       Try to repeat the tutorial to review today's class, and for sure,
          read through those pages and take some notes to review the
          concepts behind the skills.

       If you get far enough in your review of the skills to where
          you have adjusted the edge loops, go ahead and try to do
          the 9th part in the lesson.

       9. Editing components in orthographic views
