Best modeling videos on RU-vid, hands down. So glad I subscribed.

@dwon7781 2 года назад

Josh, around 3:25 you add a loop and add another loop and slide and snap, then connect verts. I just watched a Ponte Ryuurui video where he selects the front cylinder face and Insets with "I" then presses "O" to preform and Outset on a face. Same result just alternative approach. I love your vids, watching since Wooden Rain days!

@cashtonbriggs2135 2 года назад

I love watching BB videos. Even the smallest of projects can teach you so much. Thank you Josh. 👍

Thanks Cashton!

You have such a good eye for shape, form and detail. I have worked with modellers for years who just don't get it. You would be really useful in a creative department. Do you work at a studio? you should!

@JoshGambrell 2 года назад

I don’t, I find teaching and developing products to help other people much more fulfilling. If I worked in a studio I’d be helping a small man team as opposed to thousands of talented artists. Two years ago I didn’t really get it, you just tend to develop an eye for it. Thanks by the way!

@radub6941 2 года назад

Hello Josh. Just shorter way for E and then S for scale would be to press I for inset and then holding Ctrl, it would be only one operation.

@maxshepard4181 2 года назад

Hey, I am really enjoying your videos! I often get those recommended via emails, which are by the way very handy! But here I got one question: Why being stuck in blender when using normal transfer? I used it a lot while making hardsurface models for the unity engine and it worked perfectly fine.

@michaeljburt 9 месяцев назад

Normal transfer effectively sets "custom normal data" in Blender (similarly, weighted normals or "harden normal" bevel option will do the same thing in creating custom normal data). It just becomes a little tricky to work with after that point, since you can't do autosmooth unless you clear that normal data first. But yeah it will work fine when exporting or using in a game engine, since the custom normal data is just baked in with the vertex data for the mesh.

@Hell_king_ghost 2 года назад

@Dina_tankar_mina_ord 2 года назад

I just got an idea. Why not having a playfull competition with you and som of the other blender guys. Like you pick a random say kitchen appliance. And see how fast you can turn something out? a fun variation and a chance to really show of. :)

@Anthony-bz3dh 2 года назад

Great tutorial, as always. I have been running into some BoxCutter performance issues, though, that make working a massive pain. Doing any cuts/bool shifts/ect. make Blender lag HARD; I've got a very beefy system. Are there any optimizations I should be sure that I'm utilizing during modeling? Or any settings to tick on or off?

@JoshGambrell 2 года назад

Hmm, shouldn’t be happening. Lags are normal but not on that scale. Are you working with complex objects with shadow turned on? Shadow is a performance killer, the coding isn’t well optimized.

@Anthony-bz3dh 2 года назад

@@JoshGambrell I don't use the shadows setting, no. I'll have to mess around with it and see what I can do to fix it. Thanks for the reply!

@randomriot5008 2 года назад

All your objects seem to have a small bevel when you add them. what is that from?

@JoshGambrell 2 года назад

Just enable the cavity option under the viewport orb dropdown menu

@Penguinz4LOLZ 2 года назад

I don't get why you wouldn't use a nurbs based software for this, I've basically completely abandoned polygonal software for hard surface. I mean yeah you get more control of the topology in something like Blender, Maya, etc, etc, but it just seems like so many workarounds for something which could be done a lot more efficiently in nurbs.

@JoshGambrell 2 года назад

I already mentioned it in the video. It terms of versatility, built-in design and rendering tools, UI, and just about everything else I find Blender and poly-based tools infinitely better. If I thought NURBs was superior overall I wouldn’t be using Blender. I have 4+ years experience in CAD and a few certifications from high school, but I never found it useful enough to accomplish the things I wanted. In this situation, yes, NURBs results would be much better. In 99% of other projects I work with, absolutely not.

@gordonbrinkmann 2 года назад

Is there a special reason you are always using E, then abort the Extrude, Alt+S when you could simply use Alt+E or is it just a habit?

@manelmv97 2 года назад

yes, i use ALt+E more often too! faster, but then you have to press S for even extrution, remember!

@JoshGambrell 2 года назад

It’s habitual, both work but make sure you tick offset even

@gordonbrinkmann 2 года назад

@@JoshGambrell Well, in those examples of the video it doesn't make much of a difference - and as soon as it becomes necessary, you'll need it when using Alt+S, too.

I see you're using a pie menu for going into object's edit mode. Is there a way to do this in Blender or this feature is part of Hard Ops addon?
