Blender 2.9: Anime Girl Head Modeling In 30 Minutes WIP #1

[@NhijQuang]

you just need to follow the video step by step, so ez @@

[@danielz9974]

Is it really easy,can you please tell me how to merge the outline? Do you count the dots,or how do they formed from 7:04 to 7:12? Please answer,I would appreciate it

[@NhijQuang]

@@danielz9974 I don't understand the question yet. You can try this link: blender.stackexchange.com/questions/179754/how-to-fill-a-loop-with-faces

[@danielz9974]

@@NhijQuang @Nhị Quang @Nhị Quang thank you,I had a problem with filling loop faces,what I meant was, "7:04 Are the amount of dots from the nose and the other side of the face the same to be able to fill the loops?"

[@NhijQuang]

@@danielz9974 it can be used when the number of dots is not equal. You can use bridge (looptool) in this case.

I think it would be funny if he just imported the head and than ended the video 😂

[@Prajwal____]

Yeah should have saved that for 1st april that would have been really funny😂😂🤣

[@flinn9090]

Yes funny, But for serious dudes it won't even be funny but rather annoying

and if maybe it would be funnier if he would make a milion calculations on the start lmao

Where's the link to import the head???

[@ThatYopi]

for anyone whos confused 2:54 ctrl + RMB adds new vertices

[@FenrisulfrAgni]

Thats all good and fun. But on the Blender 2.9 that I am running, shift click doesnt do a damn thing and I followed step by step. I had to take my cube and delete all the vertices but one because your method does not seem to exist on my computer. When I mirror the vertex, and check clipping and add the cage thing, when I extrude my vertex, its locked along the Z Axis. No matter what I do it wont move on freely. I didnt push E X Or E Y Or E Z. So that rules that out.

[@mageco5804]

is there anyway to do this with "industry compatible" key input?

This video is the truth for someone that's great at drawing faces but can't grasp the other approaches. Brought my character to life. Thank you.

[@Clydacious]

This is brilliant, Nhi! I'd been avoiding mesh modelling like this due to my own impatience, but watching this, and following the steps, taught me a lot about adhering to a reference and using all of the feature available in order to construct a very good model!

[@roxxie99]

You said no words and yet your video helped communicated more information than a lot of others. I really like the technique you used here, it's so much easier to model faces using this.

[@terryrhuebottom]

I'm going to be honest, at first, I thought the lack of dialog was going to be a problem. And while I do think some verbal instruction would help some areas I feel I had to take the video much slower and really pay attention to what was going on here. That in a lot of ways really helped me. So, thank you

[@TheMellyGalery]

Your tutorial is amazing! I tried so hard in so many tutorials and always got lost among them and was desperate to think that it was my fault for not being born for it. Now I can understand much better and I can make 3D faces. Thank you very much! I almost gave up learning to model!

[@TheMellyGalery]

@@pedroivan391 Claro, vou fazer um novo modelo essa semana, então te mostro. Eu tentei usar outras técnicas de modelagem antes, até esculpir, mas sempre ficava algo parecido com um omunclo. Essa foi a primeira vez que consegui algo decente, mas ainda tive que fazer mais uns dois ou três modelos para aprender a manter a malha limpa e com uma boa topologia, além de reduzir o tempo de produção, isso é mais por experiência mesmo, você aprende a manter a organização.

This is fantastic! I mostly do hard surface modeling and wanted to start creating some characters, specifically anime style. I have watched this video a few times to understand what your process is and used many of your techniques in conjunction with some other head modeling videos and I am starting to get the hang of it. Will do a few more runs through creating a head and move on to your next videos. Keep up the great work!

With the numeric keypad, you can just as easily view the opposite angle (bottom, back, or other side views) as you can the standard views. To see the opposite side of the standard views, press Ctrl while hitting the corresponding Numpad key. For example, if you want to see the bottom view, press Ctrl+Numpad 7. Google for more details

If you want to get rid of the triangle at kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIK9aId7mauXg7c all you need to do is add a corner to the mouth, this doesn't seem to do any damage to the edge flow just redirects it a bit, but not in a really bad way, if you like it as is, there's no problems with tris, I'm just sort of used to having a corner in the mouth, helps a bit with rigging and animation at later stages.
