Reply To: Questions regarding the “Pull” or “pinch”?
Hi Dwayne,
first, thanks for the swift reply! I looked it up, Vertices connected to 5 Edges is called E-Pole, that must be what you meant…
I don´t think I have 2 small triangles in my second image, but indeed, the shading issues regarding Poles + Subsurf gets less noticeable when the faces are smaller (from what I saw so far)
You said at the very beginning that Subsurf works as long as it is all quads, are Poles not bad for Subsurf then ? Since even after the bevel, the Pole still persists, but the shading issue on the Subsurf is gone (Image attached)
Tbh, I still don`t understand why Poles/Ngons are bad for Subsurf, i mean yes, the topology gets pulled/pinched, but WHY is it getting pulled/pinched?
(I´d like to read/watch more about these topology dos and don´ts, preferably with indepth explanation, if you could point me to some in depth material (paid or free), I´d be very thankful !
