Great video as usual! However, I noticed that you never use the "duplicate with transform" option, instead of duplicating and snapping several times over. It's sometimes much faster than "duplicate special" even. Ctrl+D ; move the piece wherever you want ; Shift+D will duplicate it again and apply the same transform. So for example you duplicate a piece and move it 100 units on the X axis and rotate it 10 degrees. After hitting Shift+D, the next one will be 200 units on the X and rotated 20 degrees. Shift+D again, 300 and 30. And so on. You can use it to create repeatable patterns, or complete a cylinder after working on one of it's sides, or something like that. Just by quickly hitting Shift+D couple times.

Thanks for talking about density in one of these, it's so important to have the density of your base shape (ie cylinder). One tip that ive picked up too, is when you are duplicating something multiple times with the same transformation, you can press shift-d after the first time to repeat the last duplicate and transform. Cheers!

Hi' nice tutorial, I see your topology produces much better results than the one I was using departing from a subdivided plane. No having vertical edges does the trick. What's funny to me is that I can do the same stuff in a fraction of the time by using Blender with modifiers and a couple of plugins.

Great piece. But i have noticed in all your videos that you don't know how to snap in a particular exes. you always use vertex snapping. what you just need to do is press V and transform to the axes you want to move pointing to vertex you want to snap into. (V + X axes arrow, it will keep snapping the vertexes along the way).

So I model for games and usually when I model any even simple complex shapes, is it just me that freaks out if that model goes passed 2k triangles and this is because I was taught to rely on baking lol a lot. So for all the other modelers out there if you are doing high detailed environments what the minimum polygon counts you guys have and this is not for that plane wall but simple regular props and not hero props because I know those have to be ridiculous in detail so the counts have to be a little high but your regular good old trashcan. I modeled a smart fridge with just one surface bevel and the whole prop came out to 1304 triangles and I noticed it and started merging edges to bring it to at least 700 triangles and deleting back faces after beveling. Then with curiosity I smoothed it and damn it was ugly. I should have left it 1300 when it looked nice. Lesson learned even if you make props for games don't be greedy and give that mesh the little polygon it deserves just not crazy like 5k then that's nuts lol. But yea just sharing my story.

Great tutorial! And what a cool coincidence. I just finished texturing my model of a Browning 50 caliber machine gun. I just posted it yesterday. When it came to creating that particular part of the gun I was perplexed for a bit as to how to create all those holes? I ended up doing more or less the same thing you did which worked out quite well for me. But I was left questioning myself, as to whether or not that was the best approach. After watching your video I now feel comfortable with that approach. It's good to know that I did the same thing you would do. So thank you very much here's my version of the gun on Artstation www.artstation.com/artwork/Vd9avP

Came out great Robert. That M2 is a beast of a design and pretty complex. Glad you pulled it off. My UV shells where insane on that model. I do want to go back and create the mount, shells and present it more like a still life. Yup you did it the barrel the right way...I guess great minds think alike :-)
@1Robertwaterworth5 жыл бұрын
@@jlmussi I actually modeled the M2 a while back. But I used it yesterday as the model for my very first Substance Painter project. I had to take the geo back into Maya to redo all my UVs. As you said the UVs for this was a pain. I laid all the UVs out on one tile so to get enough Texel density I worked at 4K. For some reason, SP doesn't like my graphics card ( GTX Titan ) and it fails to bake an Ambient Occlusion map. So before taking the model into SP I imported it into ShaderMap 4 and baked out the AO map there, the rest of the baked maps were done in SP. I am so impressed with how SP uses those maps to do its magic. I simply used a couple of Smart Materials that is all. So I spent lots of time in Maya with the UVs, and the result of that is a lot less time in SP but still getting great results. Anyway, thanks for taking so much time to produce all these tutorials. I really appreciate your work.
