Hey everyone,
basically here is my first try. I just saw the strechted sphere like a zeppelin so i had some sort of military facility in mind with the signal building sphere thing…
QUESTION: Also i added a mesh “circle”, i could change the scale, the rotation and so on but didnt see anything. What exactly is this? Did i do something wrong with that?
Hey nice work! The circle mesh doesn’t appear to have a face, it’s just a continuous edge. I don’t really understand why it is in the ‘mesh’ category but I’m only starting to learn Blender as well so there may be a reason behind it. If you want a circle that has substance try using the torus mesh.
Thanks a lot four reply! I was a little bit confused due to the name “circle”. Anyway, i tried out the Torus mesh and came up with this, a small ring around a bowl, this should be a TV tower where people can walk around inside the bowl and the ring.
The circle is an n-gon and can be filled with two methods so you have to pick between them when you create it. Immediately after adding the circle look at the bottom of the tool pane for a drop-down labeled"fill"
Thanks! Just tested this out and you are correct. The fill settings can be found in the operators panel when creating the circle. Ngon appears to create multiple edges with a single face while Triangle Fan creates a similar mesh with edges connecting to the center (much like a cone).
Why you’d want to make a circle instead of either a cone or a cylinder is beyond me but I’m sure there’s valid uses for it.
Great, thanks a lot four explanation and declaration!
