Working working working...

OK, we're all getting to grips with the project, getting basic and more complicated stuff modeled. I'm still a little behind when it comes to maya skills, so I've not done anything particularly difficult yet. Just to give you an idea of where I'm at with the project I've been modeling a gas canister that can be found in and around the building site

There are some issues I'm having... for example if you zoom in too far you get some distortion, especially in the render window

See? What the hell is that stuff?
This is what the wire frame looks like anyhow

As you can see the geometry is a little cluttered around where the top joins, probably from where I tried to smooth it out. I'll have to figure out what's going on there...
