3D QUICK TIPS: Planar vs Nonplanar Geo

[@Onigatana]

I always wondered why the surfaces on my objects had bumps. Thanks for making this video.

[@toxicsludge77]

Thanks for the video mate, look forward to your future ones :D

Man, what kind of screen resultion is that? I'm scared.

[@aronecartolaine9606]

me too hahahaha

[@The9PointStar]

I was about to ask the same until i see that u did before lol

[@octaviordz9160]

excuse me do u have the video about sppeed the edge loop procesS? 5:31

[@giaco89]

Thanks for the tips! Looking for the next :)

but what to do if you have to model detail like that into a curved or non planar geometry? Thats really my struggle. Cutting in hard surface details on a deformed surface. Sometimes when I model a blockout, i refine it and then realise that I dont have enough geo to support most of the hard surface stuff that needs to come in now. I try using "double smooth" or "smooth by Smoothing groups" couple of times but sometimes even that gives weird result due to it being a non planar surface. Can you make a video on how to basically approach a complex shape that supports "organic details" as well as hard surface stuff and how to approach it from blockout to subd. Thanks!

What seems to be working for me is the workflow from the video "complex details" by arrimus 3D, In short, work on a low poly model whit subd modifier on, instead of adding edge loops, simply add edges where you need form changes, and if you want to change the sharpness of a corner, use creasing instead. You will still see glitches in the topology but not as many and not as apparent, in these cases you'll need to touch up a bit the topology, the good thing is that these adjustments can be made on the fly while designing, so you're not forced to do mental gymnastics to turn every triangule and ngon into quads. You can leave "bad" topology and the model will still look good.

how do you keep your polygons planar if you are doing retopology or modeling organic stuff?

[@AlexSenechal]

SatoKazuya that’s okay for organic which I covered I believe

Thanks for the video! very helpful!
