Lesson 11
Giraffe

Exercise: #11 (Giraffe)
Completed: April 4th 2007

Remarks:
General: Lessons are always going to be difficult without the video tutorial for assistance, but the book goes into good detail about patches etc.

Difficult areas: Attaching the legs and those pesky 5 point patches that looked great in render, but went to pot when you applied a decal - the patches looked 'swirly'. I tried removing CP's and reconnecting them but that was no help, in the end I fixed them with hooks.

Lessons learned: Use the Hide key often - some areas get so congested, you don't know where you are. With Flip and Paste - make sure nothing overhangs the centre line otherwise you get two halves and not one whole giraffe :-o
