since modellig for is getting more and more normal for a mapper, i thought id try to make something...

!!WARNING!! this is my first model, so yes its very noobish

no proper rendering tool is worthy of my cool model (yes, its a tiny speaker from my 4.1 system)

yeah.

i suck.

well, took me just 4-5 tutorials to figure that one out...

but how do i see how many faces ive used?

oh, and btw, heres more modeling goodyness

so.. thats my 3rd model... this one was really helpful tho, i learned to how to use the slice tool, chamfering, deleting polygons and did some leet beveling :]

here i took use in the stuff i just learned, creating something of my own (offcourse this object har probably been created countless of times before me, perhaps also in the exact same dimensions )

wohoo a barrel..

EDIT:

i actually tried making a stupid mug just now, the problem was the handle.. i just couldnt figure out how to weld two edges properly

Quote from OL

you shouldnt use the slice tool for that monitor, instead connect the edges. (select both and connect tool in edit poly)much faster and more exact

or even inset for that matter

what in the world are you talking about?

i used the slice tool at the very beginning of the model (sliced the bottom thing in two, and extruded it up to make the back supporting stuff..)

Quote from OL

ya instead of slice u connect so you get a straight linealtho i was looking at the screen part it still applies, just a tidbit of knowledge for a fledgeling modeler

i still dont see what you mean, because everything on that model is a straight line, and everything is connected... ?

Ok, so basicly, the slice tool is very fucked up and i should never ever touch it again (just like in hammer) ?

Quote from Mazy

that barrel is just screaming 4 sum smoothing groups D:

yeah... what is that? and how do i use it?

Well, after watching some videotutorials, i decided id try to make a radiator...

I made one wheel, tried to copy it over, then merge the two together... Offcourse that didnt work, so i got frustrated, and beat the crap out of my keyboard...

Then i tried making my bed.. made half, tried to copy it over, and merge again.. fucking shit didnt work this time either fucking hell piece of crap....

So i started messing around with smooth-stuff, on my barrel.. looks alot better now

Finally i started making the lamp which stands beside my monitor... took me a couple of hours to finish it:

polycount is around 500 (i think.. )
