#extrude tool

The extrude tool in Maya is essential. Extruding is a quick and effective way of shaping your object without changing it completely. To illustrate it in a simple way, I am going to take a cube. Press on the cube icon on the top of your screen.

Hold right click and select faces.

Select the face you want to extrude with left click. You can select several faces holding shift. Go to “Edit Mesh” and select “Extrude”. You can also find the extrude tool holding shift and right click.

Et voila ! You can now move it, scale it and shape it...
