Today we started our part of 3D in Maya , our lecturer presented the basics of Maya involving tools and techniques . We were told that we should try something basic and nothing majorly complex. We did not have to texture the model either.
My model was created using many extrusions and connecting within lines. The third thing i used was the target weld tool. My model is created with a cube and 4 cylinders the cylinders were extruded and inset inwards to create 4 wheels , the main part of the board was made from a cube with some connections made between the sides and then some simple scaling to morph the ends of the board. The only thing is the part connecting the board and wheels , this was made connecting lines on the underside of the board then extruding out. Here is a screenshot of my model :
