my leet model

[Skjalg]

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.

[Mazy]

Pretty okay for a first model ever. At least u got extruding down, took me ages to find that lol

[Skjalg]

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

... its a chair..

[OL]

YES!!!

[Skjalg]

well, this time i figured i should follow a tutorial...

front of the screen:

back:

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 :]

[tnoh]

Looking good for first models.

My first model was pretty simple coffee mug

[Skjalg]

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

[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..)

ya instead of slice u connect so you get a straight line

altho 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... ?

[Kedhrin]

well, its possible to get a perfectly straight line with slice, but you better double checkk, use the un uniform scale and scale the axis where they are supposed to be straight to 0%

that barrel is just screaming 4 sum smoothing groups D:

[Skjalg]

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

that barrel is just screaming 4 sum smoothing groups D:

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

[OL]

its not fucked up
