@baukepost Thanks for the feeback!

@tbrbn Cheers for that, appreciate the feedback! Also thanks for pointing me in the right direction with my memory. Turns out the champagne liquid itself was causing the issues, due to it having a volume absorption node, and this is apparently very memory hungry. Whilst that’s not inherently an issue I had it subdivided twice which basically caused my GPU to melt so after removing that it works fine, and I was able to render my half finished bottle:

It’s a bit odd how it was causing issues with rendering the interior due to the bottle being on a different layer but either way it’s fixed now, cheers for that!

@dieedi How does a human being work this fast?! That’s what I call efficient, nice stuff!

[Aaron Rudderham]

Tryna do the chairs right now and hoo boy it’s difficult without blueprints. Like it in a way though, makes you use your noggin.

I’ve joined the “Delete everything and do it again” club.  Better to delete the trash and start fresh than to keep smoothing the trash over, hoping no one notices.  Onward!

[Aaron Rudderham]

@silentheart00 Not to mention whilst your model might be gone your experience hasn’t. A common saying in the creative industry is “fail faster”. Mess up, take what you learn and improve. Looking forward to seeing your finished model!

Hi all, 

In my car, I have those rubber pipes, coming out of the engine, 2 x 3 pipes, and they come into one with some kind of patch around (research online and based on pictures found). 

But is this looking ok? Or does it looks fake? Tips are welcome 🙂

[Aaron Rudderham]

@michallis Whilst I’m no expert it’s looking good to me!

@silentheart00 Had to do this twice with my dashboard.

[Michallis Pashidis]

Hi all, 

Another question I have, I changes my wheel treads, and the new treads have a direction. So when mirrored to the back wheels, they go in the opposite direction. Can I somehow flip while mirroring along an axis?

appreciated!

[Michallis Pashidis]

@thecabbagedetective thanks, even when no expert – when it feels ‘natural’ (or should I say rubberish) then it’s ok 🙂

[silentheart00]

@thecabbagedetective Very good points!  Hopefully this time it’ll be even better!

[silentheart00]

@jakeblended Oof.  But hey, now you know what won’t work.

[silentheart00]

I’m liking my new attempt better.  Actually apply what I’ve learned in a conscious effort.  I am noticing some pinching, so I’ll have to figure that out down the road.

A big thanks to you @Kent and for your advices. I’ve really improve my modeling skills during your last class. 

This pictures is not finish but the result become to be nice.

[Kent Trammell]

Progress! But wow are there a lot of pieces to build for an interior… 😰
