Hi,
First of all, I'm new here and I hope I'm posting this in the right place. Very nice looking forum and site, by the way.
I recently started a 3D-modeling class in school (using Maya) and our first assignment was to model a cup (I suspect materials and rendering of this cup is to come). I've played around a little in Maya before, and a little in 3ds Max, but I've run into troubles. I've modeled the body (see pic), but I'm not sure how to create the handle. I tried google for a tutorial, but all I found was this (http://www.techtut.com/Tutorial/Maya/36-Create-a-coffee-cup-in-Maya.html) and references to it. Also tried searching the forum, but that didn't work.
My thought was drawing a line and somehow turning this to a cylinder and then bridge it to the body (inserting two more loops, I think they're called), but so far, no luck. Any help on how to proceed on this is much appreciated! (Can be direct tips or links to tutorials)
