Make ice cream with Illustrator objects in Maya

Make ice cream with Illustrator objects in Maya

In this lesson we will learn how to use an Adobe Illustrator object with various deformers in Maya to make soft-serve ice cream. See how to take a star object in Illutrator, bring it in to Maya and use it as the basis for soft serve ice cream on a cone. The advantage of this modeling method is that you can go back and adjust the star and affect the Maya ice cream cone.

This is pretty cool. I am a new user. Can I take the ice cream model and put it back into illustrator? Is that possible? How?

Thanks

Okay you have to save the file as a Illustrator 3 file for maya to be able to read it. You are using too many keyboard shortcuts. how do you move it? how do you shade it?
