Hard Surface problem

Cathodeus

Hi all,


I continue learning hard surface :-) And this time i got another problem.

I have to objects with differents number of vertices. They are perfectly matching as low poly but once smoothed as Sub-d everything is not matching anymore ...

How would you solve that ? I tried modeling it as a single object but i wasn't able to keep hard edge were they mus be as well as rounded shape where needed.

Thanks in advance.

you have to match the edge count and spacing. on the larger mesh, you have two more edges on the top part. remove those and the sub-d version should match better.

Ilo thanks for your answer. But i needed those additionnals edges to keep the hard edge on the bigger object.

I solved my problem earlier today by adding more sections to the floating geometry. Smoothed it to level 1. Than matched the bigger object.

So thanks Ilo for your explanation anyway.
