Modeling 3D LOW POLY car in blender - FULL TUTORIAL

[@jalopyfromhalf-life9163]

Literally this evening, after a long painful (actually, spent with pleasure) three days, I finished the work following your lesson. Despite the fact that I took another Porsche (77' 911 Turbo 930) as a basis, the entire modelling process turned out to be more than understandable and straightforward, albeit with some nuances. Thank you for the very detailed process of working with the "one geometry" method. With it, the result is very stylish and really charming. You have a very promising and cozy channel. I'm really looking forward to your new timelapses and lessons! Wish you more grateful subscribers and strength to continue developing your creativity. :)

Tip for anyone that has it difficult to fix the geometry after 21:40: before moving out the edges, select them and press: S, then X and then 0. That way they are flat and adjusting them after moving them out is easier. 👍

Fortunately, you can unhide all hidden objects pretty quickly by pressing Alt+H.

[@fox-anim]

There is the subtitles by "srt" file, (it's simpler than your blue color) it's multi-language, you add the file when uploading youtube, and anyone can read the subtitles in their language, that's what I did on some of my videos.

[@sevengraycubes]

i need to follow time code with subtitle so again have to edit every line

[@fox-anim]

@@sevengraycubes In fact the "srt" file is a text file, there is no need to take out the video editor and re-do an extraction if you want to change 1 sentence, it is the most basic. And yes there is a time code for each timeline, but in general I put "3 seconds" per line displayed. Ask tchatGPT to give you a summary, he knows everything. I put this comment on the SRT, because I saw that you made a huge effort to add a font and color it. Try the SRT with just 2 sentences, you will see that it is very easy, and you will save a lot of time, and it is practical.

[@muhammadadnanzafar6951]

I'm not sure if I admire, or hate, the way how you absolutely couldn't care less about all the spiky geometry errors you create by beveling & extruding the body lines. It may serve the purpose for this low poly display model, but it makes it impossible to tessellate.

Hello, I wanted to ask a couple of quick questions. And because you mentioned in a comment that you're Croatian, I'll speak Croatian so nothing gets lost in translation. Zanimalo me, u slucaju da trebam imat sve dijelove tijela kao zasebna tijela/mesheve, da li bi bilo moguce da odaberem, primjerice, svaku facu odredenog mesha, primjerice na vratima, i da ih uspijem odvojit od glavnog mesha? Znaci da kreiram cijelo tijelo auta, i da zatim od tog tijela odvojim vrata, blatobrane, haubu, gepek, retrovizore, itd itd itd... I drugo pitanje, citam da neki pricaju o subdivision modifier, i vidio sam u jednom vasem komentaru da kazete da je ovo potpuno krivi pristup za tu metodu. Sto tocno je krivo o ovakvom pristupu? Zadnje pitanje, da li imate slucajno nekakav patreon ili tako nesto da doniram nekaj malo, cisto jer je tesko naci solidne tutoriale. Hvala unaprijed!

[@sevengraycubes]

Pozdrav :) sto se tice prvog pitanja selektiras sve poligone koje hoces odvoit desni klik separate selection i to je to. Sto se tice sub diva moze se koristit u single mesh pristupu medjutim lakse je kontrolirat topologiju ako su djelovi odvojeni. Sto se tice zadnjeg dijela za donacije i hvala vam na tome od srca mozete postati member kanala ili poslati super like s iznosom koji zelite ili imate mail u opisu kanala, pisite mi tamo pa cu vam dat paypal nalog..patreon nemam....sva dodatna pitanja u vezi modeliranja mozete postaviti na mail takodjer..hvala.

[@bernardb-x4r]

@@sevengraycubes Evo nasao sam opciju za super thanks, pa cu sada. A sto se tice sub diva, ako ih odvojim sa separate selection, onda bih i trebao moci koristit normalno subdiv, da? Topologija bi trebala bit normalna ako se ravna po svakom dijelu individualno?

[@sevengraycubes]

@@bernardb-x4r e to je malo skaljivo podrucje jer moze doci do cudnog shadinga ako si recimo slomio bocnu liniju sa linijom od vrata nekim pomakom vertexa onda ce doc do razlike u shadingu tu treba bit precizan i pazljiv ali u principu sub div koristis normalno za svaki dio.

[@azeiku9915]

@@sevengraycubes Thank you for the response. That's super helpful too but what I meant was it seems you select a new vertex along the wheel arch. Maybe you are just selecting the next vertex with a mouse click but you seem to move around the arch selecting different vertices and I didn't know if it was mouse click or keyboard stroke. I think in the Maya editor you can select adjacent vertices with the keyboard arrows. Didn't know if that was possible in Blender. Would make it easier to traverse the vertices and just click G + slide the mouse to adjust vertices quickly. Didn't know if you are doing that or just selecting the next vertex with your mouse click.

When I try to mirror the cube after loop cutting, it became two separate rectangles that are still symmetrical but not one mirrored shape. I don't understand why because I got it to work the very first time and can't recreate it now. Commenting to see if I can figure it out on my own here but so far, I've deleted and recreated this cube like 8 times and its super frustrating to be stuck on the first step.

[@sevengraycubes]

1. check are u in x ray mode 2. check cliping in mirror properties 3, make sure that both front and back vertecies are selected and when u delete them that they are all deleted
