I know what you’re thinking, like how did he know what to do? Feels like a math formula, it’s not very intuitive, and that’s exactly it. When it comes to modeling that soccer ball, it’s one of those specific cases where it’s like figuring out a puzzle, it’s not your straight up usual modeling, it’s almost like a math problem. What you see modeling that ball is not going to be the normal way of modeling something, it’s just an example, so don’t worry about it. Those steps you need to follow is almost like a hack, a procedural way people have found on how to go about the ball, but it’s not like you are ever going to see an object and approach the modeling that way. So again, don’t worry, it’s there so just you know the possibility, this is not how you usually model.
