a ten minute video took me 7 hours lolz. Its very good tut but for a learner I have to stop the video on every single action and figure out how to do it. 2012 also has some things different.

@banshi68 haha that's all good, the more you use Maya the quicker you'll become. It's a good idea to learn the interface and the main editors before trying to model a complex object though!

how did you move the pic at 5:23

[da1bu89]

@beepboopbopers I clicked and dragged it. Also hold down shift to constrain its movement horizontally.

This is so frustrating, I'll just do 2D Animation/games...
