Reflective Statement

Maya for me has always been a big struggle and I never would of thought I would know so much about it now. I've barely scratched the surface of Maya and there's still so much more to learn. This toolkit has definitely helped me understand Maya a bit more. Though, for future Maya tutorials I need to get them done on time and make sure my completed tasks are all saved to my driver as I lost some work due to leaving it on one of the erasable Uni computer folders - but that is no excuse I still need to get them done on time.
