Nice inlay on the panels and ditto what LJ said – lovely umbrella

[LJ Simpson]

Pretty cool Scott! Makes me want to sit down and play right now! Nice light on the candles.

BC1-1801 Week 2 Homework Submission

Hi everyone, wow… you guys rock! really great work.

i have small work for submission and some questions.

The modifiers i have used were Subsurf, Bevel, Curve, Array.

and after applying Array, Curve and Subsurf. mod. i got “bad geometry” :

 

how is better to handle with this mistakes?

and second questions, when i delete faces how to leave on general face straight form of rectangles?

BC1-1801 Week 2 

Here is the first of two models I did for this exercise:

[Scott McClellan]

A little Comet goes a long ways. lol. Nice texturing and great design.

[Kent Trammell]

Beautiful work, @shiennar 👏 I love the details in the table. All your topology is super clean and uniform. You model very well. And no, I don’t consider this flexing for the sake of ‘showing off’. I sense that you’re participating in the assignments at your level and that’s perfectly fine. Thanks for submitting and sharing details about your worfklow! A+

[Kent Trammell]

Woah that line6 audio device has very interesting features. Looks awesome, Kaj. Is it entirely mesh-modeled (box modeled) or is it a hard-ops result? Can’t quite tell from the wireframe..

PS: Fantastic choice of quote on the mug 👌

[Scott McClellan]

Only thing I can think of off the top of my head, in the “array modifier” did you have the “Merge” checkbox activated? That might solve it, not sure.

[Kent Trammell]

Splendid submission @ljsstudio! You absolutely nailed the tire exercise along with the coffee cup. Even added the rim for good measure. All your topology is clean and uniform. In other words: You crushed it this week: easy A 👊 

Didn’t get wrapped up in realism so much as getting comfortable with working with the tools again

You made the right choice. Good job focusing on getting comfy with the tools. Obsessing over realism can come later 🤓

Thanks for submitting and for sharing about your experience this week!

[Scott McClellan]

Weapons. Weapons. Weapons.

From a series I’ve read many times over 30 years. Guesses?

[Kent Trammell]

The umbrella is a wonderful choice for modifier-based modeling – nice! You accomplished it quite well. As with the decorative wood paneling. You nailed it: A.

I’m very happy to hear that you’re less shy around mesh modeling and modifiers. Based on your submission you seem to understand the concept and workflow clearly. And you’re right about this thread – so many good submissions, critiques, and encouraging comments happening. I’m having a blast with this class 🙂

BC1-1801 Week 2

And the second model I made for this exercise:

For full disclosure I modeled the fingers based upon Angela Guenette’s Blenderella tutorial, so I didn’t figure that part out myself.  The phone took several tries, and I finally made it with multiple parts, rather than cut a Boolean out of main unit that holds the glass as that created a lot of non-quad geometry that doesn’t play well with the subsurface modifier.

[Matthew Gayton]

Thank you!

Beautiful work!  I like the chair design, it reminds me of the chairs my mother used to have when I was a kid.
