Maya 8.5 Tutorials

[aeonrevolution]

I just recently am trying to get back into learning some modeling in the program Maya. I have 8.5 currently. Aside from the official website are there any forums or other learning sites you guys would recommend to help me get my feet on the ground? The only work I have done that is somewhat similar is level design via Hammer on the half life 2 engine.

Thanks in advance

Dang...really? I figured there would be some very basic tutorials around on the web.

you can check out http://www.3dbuzz.com. They have a whole bunch of free Maya tutorials. If you find you like them and are looking for more they also offer a Maya Fundamentals as well as a Maya Advanced Modeling Training DVDs courses which i hear are both very good (and cheap)

I would defiantly check out their free stuff though, just click the "Video Training" link at the top of the homepage to see all the available tutorials.
