Nice tutorial, I don't think I've ever used the ctrl-click, but now I know it's not just a extrude. thanks for that.

No worries. I think it's a handy (and faster) trick to know and the way it auto angles is really nice.

i think add the sub d modifier that early makes it a bit harder to model it. mirror modifier on the blade is def something i dont do .

Awesome! Any chance you show us how to make power armor? I'm not even talking about a GW Space Marine, basic scifi armor would be cool. Especially the joints on the legs and arms are killing me :C

That could be fun. I might combine that with a request for a robot arm that was made a while back to do some external armour that could be power armour. When you say the joints what exactly do you mean? The armour protecting the joints or things like the soft/rubberised flexible bits?

The Ctrl+Click extruding seems to just make it come out at some really weirsd random angles for me
@ArtisansofVaul
Жыл бұрын
I'm not sure why that would be. As shown here it makes for a pretty quick way to extrude points normally. But if it doesn't work you can't just extrude normally and drag the point into place.

I know this might be a big ask but could you do a guide on booleaning things together for 3D modelling, the do's and don'ts of it if you will. Plus answer a few basic questions like 'is it ok to have Ngons for 3D modelling for 3D printing' because I can find almost no resource besides yourself on making stuff specifically for 3D printing, most other tutorials are focused on 'game ready assets' or designed for 3D animation.
@ArtisansofVaul

Sounds like some great ideas. The whole reason I made the channel was that there are very few 3D printing specific resources so this is exactly the thing I'm looking for. I'll add it to my list to do.
@ArtisansofVaul
2 жыл бұрын
And to answer a question quickly here, its fine to have ngons for printing but (and its a big but) during the process of creating the models ngons can cause issues for things like further booleans sometimes so they are things you might want to resolve if you have further boolean work to do.

Sorry for the delayed reply, I didn't get a notification about your comment for some reason. So the addon I use for that is Boxcutter.

Theres a better way of accomplishing this, actually two ways! Model it like a straight sword and then use either a lattice modifier or a simple deform modifier set to bend
@ArtisansofVaul
2 жыл бұрын
I've already demonstrated a lattice modifier (as explained at the beginning of the video) and the bend modifier is alright but offers less control. Also this is a method needed for more complex blade shapes so wanted it to be shown to complete the three methods. Bur if the ones you have mentioned are more suitable then for sure they are good to use.

An even faster and more effective way is actually using proportional editing once u have the rough base shape of the sword sorted. but if i was new to blender, the approach show in this video is the most beginner friendly way.

How do you keep the extrusion on the x-y plain and prevent it to move on the z-axis?
@ArtisansofVaul
2 жыл бұрын
So if you want it on one plain click the axis you want it on (e.g. S and then X to only scale on that plain). If you want it to scale on two plains but not the other you use shift + the plain you do NOT want it to scale on. In your example of wanting it to just scale on the X-Y plains it would be S then shift+Z. Hope that helps 😁
