I want to stop after making the bowling pin and bowling ball and expand into my acquired skills. I feel it is important for me to take a break and get out of my comfort zone with the step by step hand-holding of this tutorial and crash into some obstacles and difficulties at full speed.
This tutorial is PERFECT. Not saying anything negative. It is broken down very well and I love that. I’m just saying that, if I dont branch off and get into the weeds a bit , I won’t discover my full potential. Anyway, here’s something I threw together before work this morning.
This will gain more detail as I continue to work on it.
It’s very clippy right now. Not sure ATM if we’ve learned how to fix/avoid that yet.
Looks good! The clipping is faces over-lapping each other. They wouldn’t do that it the vertices were connected. If they are connected than you have double faces in there.
That’s really nice Motoko, and agree with what your saying about using the course as a backbone, and going off and playing with things instead of tearing through it.
I keep having that issue as well, despite being aware of the reasons as NixeKnox points out.
Not sure if I accidently press a shortcut maybe an extra E and end up with double verts, in some places, or extra faces, but it seems that I always have to go back and check by moving a vert and seeing what’s underneath, I’m sure it’ll all come right with enough practice though.
And Sketchfab, always makes it obvious you done messed up
Haha yes Sketch Fab can be unforgiving. I scrapped this T-rex and rebuilt it. It’s somewhere in the showcase on this site. But here it is for quickref.
