hi, i have been modeling in a dragon which was converted from Nurbs to Polygons but i suddenly found that my dragon is some kind of one shaded model, and this also happens with the (plane) ploygon shape, i need to know what's wrong.

Note: I should have posted that thread on the shading and texturing topics but sorry it was a mistake :)

Thanks in advance.

Looks to me like your polygons have been flipped. Not a shading problem.
I dont know how to do this in Maya, but do a search in help for 'flip polygon' and do it to your entire model.

Ctrl+a - flip

But if it still isnt right, look for a 'unify' option.

- Jockflip doesnt seem to work, i dont know about unify but i worked on the normals it worked but on one side of the face only, any other ideas?

Maybe your object has been shaded opposite.

Go to render state of your mesh shape node and check the box that says "double side".
