@rogi92 Manually extruding and filling polygon strips can be a viable modeling strategy but some of the shapes in that mask could make it a tedious and time consuming process. Since you already have a solid start to outlining the shapes: consider streamlining this modeling strategy by using Blender's curve system to layout…
@Brick Top - This was done very quickly(rusted) with no blueprint so its incredibly inaccurate!!!(its crap basically :P so i shouldn't really be giving you any advice but i will anyway :poly142: :P) So once again you have abit too much geometry where some areas have way too much, but it is a good improvement. Here's what i…
@GCMP: I prefer make it myself since I join this more as a hobbyist than a guy who request for model. (: If I can't reproduce it your way, I'll ask again :p BTW, I didn't make hipoly boolean, I make boolean for (little) 8 sides and (big) 32 sides cylinder.Consider they have suitable segments between their size... Then fix…
Ok, interesting, this wasn't exactly what i was expecting(as visually this works fine) but i'll try to help as much as i can. You seem to be asking a little more about workflow stuff, so i'll share a couple good rules i try to use. First off, to avoid having to deal with very small edges, try and block out all of your…
Alright so this is a pretty quick one, start with a 18 sided cylinder(12 may work too) make a few bevels to block out the main circular forms, make one last extra bevel to add a little padding on the outsides for the hard shapes, then go in and sellect 2 of ever 3 edges(select 2 leave one, select 2, etc) and remove them.…
Hello Polycount, I'm a hobbyist really interested in playing aroung with Maya. I've started plans to make a virtual yacht and pier for a really special friend of mine but I would really want to get it done right in a proper way without misconceptions. I've been poking my nose into tutorials and decided to do a test on a…
Hi everyone, my first post here, and I can't believe how useful this forum is. I thought other ones were helpful, but there are so many amazing resources here. I'd like to show you a project I'm working on, and an area I'd like to improve I'm trying to build an AT-AT walker and I decided to actually model the panel lines…
@Yogifi Thank you. @tatertots Thank you for taking the time to follow up your initial question with a detailed explanation of what you tried and what you were looking to improve. Glad you found the posts helpful. Cylinder intersections is a good place to start and from there the v block project covers three different…
@headachedotpng Thank you for sharing these resources. I have a question about this process. It's very fast and there's no cleanup but the topology seems to cause problems when it's subdivided. Any thoughts on how to resolve these edge flow problems or another way to use the same process to end up with an edge flow similar…
@99499 The shape and cut of the pattern will play a role in how the loose fabric falls. If you're working in Marvelous designer: Try cutting a larger pattern with extra fabric in the side of the legs and adjust the cloth settings so it's saggy. Use a smaller pattern for the cuffs and try adding elastic settings so they…
