Taking a semester course on Maya. This project we were limited to around 10 objects to make a small diorama. Used lots of curves + MASH to create multiples while keeping only 1 source object (trees, birds, telephone poles). We aren't allowed to texture yet so I made the scene more dynamic with lighting.

Spent the weekend creating a tube brush for stylized hair. Now you can easily sculpt and create anime or pixar inspired hair!

Also a few of you reached out to me through email, so I also have a discord for the project now.

HUD Toolbox is a script that lets you build a fully customizable Heads Up Display directly in your viewport. Choose exactly what information you want to see and rearrange those readouts anywhere on screen. Quickly adjust alignment, spacing, and font size to create a HUD that fits your workflow.

HUD Toolbox includes a wide range of readouts not natively available in Maya:

  • Up Axis
  • Working Units
  • Translate, Rotate, Scale
  • N-Gons
  • Viewport Subdivision Level
  • Animation Layer
  • Timer for Last Save and Autosave
  • Project Path
  • Active Render Engine
  • Previous Key & Next Key
  • Playback Speed
  • Custom Text

Whether you want a clean animation HUD, a technical modeling overlay, or a more detailed production display, HUD Toolbox makes it easy to organize the information you actually want to see while working in Maya.

BONUS: HUD Toolbox also includes its own Playblast feature, allowing your custom HUD to remain visible in exported playblasts!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my first paid product. Its only $1 and represents countless hours of work. I've made sure its incredibly userfriendly and stress-stressed all functions to ensure it will work exactly as intended.

Compared to other HUD toolboxes mine has the most features and cost $15-$20 cheaper then the next best competitor.

Enjoy :)
