High Poly Pinching

Oranghe

Hello Poly

I am rather new to making High Poly objects and I'm having some issues with this shape, i get allot of pinching and a bit unsure how to fix that? or have perhaps a cleaner mesh flow.

(did not finish doing the rest of the canister but you can see there's pinching all the way up the model and some round the bottom)



Any advice would be great thank you

hmm I think you need to add more edges to your base cylinder before you add details and support edges.

I suggest you read this thread: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=56014
before someone post "MOAR GEO"

MOAR GEO! is really the fix also you usually don't want tris on curved surfaces(when high poly modeling) they tend to smooth badly.

its the triangle in the mesh, quad them out should smooth it. Have the control edge continue up as oppose to wrapping to create the triangle

MOArr.. oh.

Thanks for the feedback everyone, i have always made my high poly from a low poly so i made one fresh to turn straight into the high poly and it helped allot.

Did try some other things but that is what helped the most

Yeah, low to high is generally the backwards way to do it, most people do high to low, for a variety of reasons.
