My Primitive exercise. 

[Omar Domenech]

Great exercise. I bet those fruits are delicious. They shall be called, Spherenges.

I added handles that look like they fold in flat in the latch and a panel at the bottom of the latch where i imagine the locking mechanism could be.

im trying to focus on modelling so didnt go crazy with the shading, those nodes make me dizzy

[Martin Bergwerf]

Hi Jonathan @Jojo ,

Don\t worry, you’ll get used to those Nodes sooner or later.

But speaking of getting dizzy; and I must admit, that I haven’t done this course yet, so maybe this is how it’s supposed to be, but this looks really weird to me, at least from this viewing angle;

[Jonathan Lazaro]

ya i see it now that you mention it, the last line at the back is sticking out too much horizontally, i think i adjusted the window after the roof was done, im going to make a habit a reviewing the entire piece every so often

[Jonathan Lazaro]

My husky, i had a lot of trouble getting good topography , i kind of gave up at the front of the ankle . I figure ill get better at it as i gain more experience

It’s getting there. As you say, the more and more you do it, the better the results will be. Keep at it 🤘🏼

[Jonathan Lazaro]

lol so after reviewing sketchfab models and playing around with my model ive realized i could have gotten away with less loops

[Martin Bergwerf]

It looks fine Jonathan!

There are a few questionable topology decisions, especially around the most difficult part: the ears:

but they work out allright when using Subdiv, so: great job (there is always room for improvement, but trying to get something perfect will hinder you in moving forward and improving…)

[Jonathan Lazaro]

Im not super happy with it , it seems each time i try to smooth/fix one detail something else gets messed up in the process ,i couldnt get it on to sketchfab , its too big, and decimate doesnt seem to be working for me , it freezes forever and then acts as if it worked but no changes take place.

[Omar Domenech]

It’s very good, the overall shape is great and the likeness is there, but I know what you mean, the extremities on the tail and fins are a bit crooked, those parts are hard to detail, some mushiness here and there, but don’t worry, just keep practicing and iterating, until we have the I know kung-fu Matrix tech, it’s all we can do.

That GPU looks really good!

[Omar Domenech]

Cool model man, I bet the GPU powers the jet.
