Re: Basic topology exercises Giz
I would suggest learning subD modelling to be able to deal with CAD data or complex surfaces. Start small, start with a hammer, wrench or baseball bat, run it all by the steps you mentioned, texturing, retopo, materials and lighting. Even though you have work in portfolio but based on what you have described this will be a… -
Re: Basic topology exercises Giz
I keep adding topology. But two things are giving me a headache: 1) A circular topology clashes with a straight-line quad topology; I don't know how to reconcile them. 2) I have areas that appear to have many vertices, and even knowing the tricks for reducing vertices, I don't know how to make some of them "die." For… -
Re: Basic topology exercises Giz
Thank you so much for your help, HAWK12HT. I truly appreciate it. Thanks to your message and the other guys' input, I've realized that this kind of exercise, as someone said, "is useful for me to see how un-useful it is." :) And I've definitely learned that lesson. The idea was right, but the way I was trying to learn was… -
Re: Basic topology exercises Giz
Because a subdiv model have better silhouette, with much more detailed side edges. ;) A silhouette, much more detailed side edges. The image you showed, XWING, seems to have been chosen precisely for this, for example. I modeled an XWING years ago. Here, to my portfolio artstation But the model's rendering was hellish, as… -
Re: Basic topology exercises Giz
Yes, and that's exactly what I want to do. My goal will never be low-poly production for games or animation. My only aim is the production of 3D hard-surface, and later, organic and artistic models. An example would be a rendering of a spaceship flying in a valley. Or a steampunk boat sailing in a sea. My interest is to…
