I’ve been modelling a 90s PC and have been slapping weighted normal on everything. I couldn’t figure out why a hard surface model would have so many surface ‘defects’ but now it’s clear that it’s just the smoothing ‘leaking’ into flat normals from details. Thanks so much for this information.

This is probably the best Blender and 3D modeling channel on KZitem. Props to you, sir! It's really instructive and not misleading like some very famous Blender KZitem channels that often suggest you buy addons to fix the shading issues, just moving some vertices here and there without a general idea of how things work. I've learned so many useful approaches and tools just by watching your videos. I never knew there was tool called knife projection, for instance.

Thanks for this video! So I already knew about this modifier but instead what I really got out of this video was an in depth explanation of how are normals calculated. And also discovered the awesome 'Set Snap Bast' function of the 'Move' tool, haha. This is why I love tutorials, I'm doing 3D for a long time and there's always some small new bits that you learn. As for the shading in these 90 degree corners where you put 'Set Sharp' towards the end of the video, wouldn't you say that beveling these would produce a better shading result and also make the model even more realistic? If there is one thing that I know for sure it is that we don't want sharp corners on high poly hard-surfaces..

Thank you for this video. Very informative. I just started learning hard Surface Modelling with Blender. And, very quickly I have been exposed to the industry argument of avoiding ngons in 3d modeling. Please what is your take on ngons and quads in 3d modeling. I have been watching your tutorial for a while. You sounds like a professional in this field and not just some road side modeling artists. If you have a video on this topic you can recommend that also.. Thank you!
@christopher3d475
8 ай бұрын
One of the reasons there's resistance to the use of ngons is some systems don't work well with them. For instance, Unreal Engine doesn't like them and it's best to triangulate or quadrangulate ngons in a model going there. But most general purpose systems like Blender handle ngons just fine. The restrictions for their use comes down to whether an object needs to be deformed in some way, that's a condition where ngons can cause problems. They can be used in a subdivision surface model, but you do have to be more careful with how they're done. For instance you do need to avoid concave ngons because they get subdivided to polygons that can end up overlapping onto each other. But at render time and when a model is subdivided, those ngons get converted to quads and triangles anyway.

awesome tut! also, i just wanted to point out that for situations like at 27:30, the algorithm may be struggling because of the topology. i'm not sure why you dissolved that area into a single face, which is not an ideal quad based topology and can easily create shading issues :)

Whats your take on using vertex groups and bevel modifiers for non destructive beveling? Since you can do a boundary loop and then the actual bevel with just 2 modifiers.
