[@hurleyman77]

It's worth mentioning that these modeling methods are not mutually exclusive, meaning that when you start a model you don't have to pick one method and use only that method for the whole model. You can mix and match to suit the needs of the model. The earbuds example is a good case for multiple techniques. Maybe boolean is best for some of the more angular components of the earbuds, and subsurf is better for some of the more curvy parts. Maybe even throw in some sculpting if there are more organic things you want to add to them, like scratches and wear-and-tear marks. Try them all!

[@KaizenTutorials]

Absolutely! In fact the techniques usually enhance eachother for a more satisfying and functional modeling experience. Trying to do everything with just 1 technique can be frustrating!

[@lawrencedoliveiro9104]

For example, booleans and subsurf are available as node types within Geometry Nodes.

To get sharper edges in subdivision modelling I usually just press Shift+E to add a crease. Great video tho!!

[@KaizenTutorials]

That is another great option! But I often run into shading issues with creases. Plus if you want to change the crease strength it's annoyign to have to reselect edges, and change it with the same command. The bevel is more non destructive and easy to change up in my opinion!

Just bookmarking the bit at 6:08 for your good tip on sub-d modeling: add a bevel modifier above the sub-d mod, then change Limit Method to Weight and then select the edges, hitting N to open item menu, then increase the Mean Bevel Weight, and then increase the bevel segments.

Box is very underrated, but definitely better suited for lowpoly and retro styles.

True. I think Box is like the default version of sub D.

this video was actually more usefull than all those tutorial videos on the internet i downloaded blender 2 days ago and i don't even know how to 3d model untill i see this video now i can finally do 3d modeling with combining the things i learned from the other 30 tutorials

[@KaizenTutorials]

Glad I could help!

[@nostalgianinja]

Worth noting: Edge creases work too in the subdivision modelling workflow. By using Shift+E on selected edges, you can influence how edges are averaged out in the subdivision, giving you sharper edges right where you need them.

[@KaizenTutorials]

Very true! Thanks for sharing.

Instead of adding more edge loops to help define a shape, you can use Edge Crease (Ctrl + E, Edge Crease) to make the selected edges run closer what they are un-Subdivided. If you're going to retopologize later it doesn't matter, but if that's your final model, it can save you a lot of faces.

[@KaizenTutorials]

Good addition! I don't like creasing because it causes a lot of shading artifacts in my experience, but you're right it is a valid option to define shape!

I realize that "box modelling" might not be very "chic" if You want to "strut Your knowledge" but for anyone "starting out" I would argue that it most definitively is a technique that You should "master" as one of the first ones, as it can serve as a "base" for so many of the others. At least that's my view. Best regards

[@marcapouli7805]

After years of practice and never been able to finish something, my prefered technique is to desinstall any kind of creation software, to live with social minima and stop trying to do anything constructive. Maybe it was an error to stop my job and waste almost 10 years to practice something I love, 15 hours a day, 365 days, hoping that one day I would earn at least a bit of money. Now I still don't see how I could earn money with all I have learned. I don't know what else to do so I continue trying, but it is a cycle, I waste month/years on project that I finally give up and I get depressed, and after some times I still don't know what to do so I try again until I give up.

[@KaizenTutorials]

Hmm I'm sorry to hear that. My best advice is to always try and set attainable goals for yourself, no matter how small they are. By setting goals and reaching them you're creating good habits and rewarding yourself for achieving the goals. This makes learning MORE fun and easier to maintain! Try a small project and get it done. Then move on to another project and do that! Maybe that helps. Good luck!

I enjoy box modeling myself. I find that my polycount gets a little out of control too quickly with Sub-D modeling, and for booleans topology and edge flow just flies out the window.

I guess it's more or less the basis of SubD. But technically it's a standalone modeling technique, which to me is a lot less flexible, intuitive and 'dated' compared to SubD. Afaik in real Box modeling you don't use any subdivision modifiers. Just subdivide the geometry and transform the poly's to get the look you want.

[@schemage2210]

@@KaizenTutorials Your not entirely wrong. Unless you are going for super low poly models (and even then this might not be true), you are going to need a Sub-D modifier at some point. When it comes to creating base meshes for Sculpting or Boolean workflows, you really can't pass by box modelling.

I watched a video where a professional modeller didn't like the use of booleans ina gun model an amateur had created. Why would that be?

Because booleans tend to create NGONS. There's still a lot of different schools when it comes to topology. Generally speaking in games and VFX NGONS are very heavily frowned upon and good topology with a quadded up edge flow are expected. Booleans, without proper correction afterwards, will create terrible topology. That's probably why. Unless you know what you're doing booleans can be a pain.

There is a giant misconception on the internet that booleans cause shading artifacts. This is not true. An artifact happens when a polygon with more than three vertices is bent, or one of the vertices is misaligned with the others. The only polygon that doesn’t create artifacts is a triangle. Every other polygon can bend and create artifacts. So to fix shading issues with quads and ngons you either clamp the bend or move the vertex in question to the proper position.
