Topology Study - Tactical PASGT Helmet (Part 1) - 3D Modeling

[@louismajor4394]

He makes topology look easy every time. 🙂

[@ThomasColin3D]

Thanks Louis :)

[@lewisguapo]

I clicked: "sure anyone can make a helmet" Later: "didn't know topology could be easy and fun"

[@ThomasColin3D]

Haha thanks for watching man

[@franzcrack]

Very useful and quality knowledge for no charge. Greatly encourages a learner to become your patron to keep on learning! Well done sir :)

[@ThomasColin3D]

Thank you very much :)

[@dasfabelwesen]

The "select similar" part was eyeopening. Probably more perfect than the original.

[@ThomasColin3D]

Thank you! :)

[@MYBB90]

The actual modeling starts at 1:35 guys

[@LFSPharaoh]

5:32 yooo this is so simple and effective! Always love your tutorials

[@ThomasColin3D]

Thanks :D

Thanks sir help me a lot for learning CAD and 3d modelling software on my early engineering stundent era

[@ThomasColin3D]

@@strix501 glad it helped !

[@rundown3D]

Tutorial out of no where 👏👏

[@HYDROTRANSFORMATOR]

9:53 - 10:00. How did you determine those coefficient numbers for "S"?

[@ThomasColin3D]

Lots of tests. I found that these numbers we giving the best results to reduce the visibility of the poles

[@Shack263]

I love watching your videos. You're very skilled and I'm glad you share your experience with others. Also this helmet looks very cool 😄

[@ThomasColin3D]

Thank you very much man !

[@topfrad6120]

This was awesome, cannot wait for the next tutorial!!

you just got yourself a subscriber. not many tutorials on how to make armor out there for blender.

[@ThomasColin3D]

Thank you!

[@-CRZY-]

Hey man super interseting video, im a beginner and have 2 questions. Did you use Blender hardops or anything else and also at the 5:30 Minute mark you start to Talk about edgeflow etc is there a video that explains those terms to me and Show how and why you deleted the edges? Id grealty appreciate some guidance

[@ThomasColin3D]

Hey man, thanks. I don't any a video that explains that but i'll make one for sure

[@nekoshaurman]

Nice videos and guides! It would be cool to see during the video which keys are pressed)

[@ThomasColin3D]

Thank you! I can't show what keys I press because I made my own custom shortcuts. You would not be able to follow! But I say what I press when I speak

[@athallahazharreksatamatpu1990]

Thomas, i got a problem in 01:48. when i press "SHIFT + Alt + S", it doesn't do anything. i already apply the subdivision to 2 by the way. where possibly i do wrong? FYI, i tried join discord via invitation link but it says "EXPIRED"

[@ThomasColin3D]

Hey man, were you in edit mode ? I updated the link in the description :)

[@athallahazharreksatamatpu1990]

@@ThomasColin3D I was. after i subdivided to 2 in object mode then need to go to edit mode in order to select the polygons right? (resuting the object surfaces becomes highlighted). AFTER this STEP, pressing that Shift + Alt + S don't do anything. i'm working in blender 4.1 FYI i'm already in discord

[@brunomedina7673]

I get estresed because I was searching for a video about this but the videos are not tutorials or are hellmets of ww2, new follower, plis more content like this, im new in blender and im working in a game

[@CiaranWhelan]

Are you able to show us how to prepare thos helmet for 3d printing? Adding solidify etc?

[@ThomasColin3D]

I don't know anything about 3D printing sorry!

[@CiaranWhelan]

@ThomasColin3D ok, I will reword. Remove the word printing. Can you make the model with solid walls and no open gaps? If you can show us how to do that, then you have already got it prepared for printing. 😊

[@kagan8579]

9:17 I can’t see them on my wievport bruuuh yours is the best 😂

[@ThomasColin3D]

Haha I can see all the small imperfections :D

[@АлександрСоловцов-ш1ж]

Thank you, good tutorial. How did always use slide mode for vertex?

[@ThomasColin3D]

I press G twice. The vertex is contrained to follow the direction of the edge

[@alexgop1980]

Thanks for a lesson! Could you share the images of helmet for repeat modeling process?

[@ThomasColin3D]

Hey! I don't have the links of the pictures because they were sent to me on discord. I can share them to you on Discord if you DM me :)

[@alexgop1980]

@@ThomasColin3D Wow thanks a lot bro

[@cevune-8652]

Alternatively, the helmet being modeled is a MICH2000 (I know the title says PASGT, but those are similar and have a little visor lip at the front). Some google-fu later, and the store for "Protection Group Denmark" has front/side/rear pictures that can be saved/used as reference. Their chin strap is a bit different, but for the helmet itself, it should be almost if not completely the same.

[@MYBB90]

im stuck at the mirror modifier. when i delete half of the sphere it has this curl

[@ThomasColin3D]

This curl ?

[@strangeapprentice]

Awesome. Where can we get the reference image to follow along. thanks!

[@ThomasColin3D]

You can DM on discord to ask them. I don't have the links but I can send you the pictures

nice tutorial, learnt a lot, btw what blender theme do you use? if its free can you give me the name or the file to download it please, i have seen it many times but i cant find it

Hello, thanks! My theme is available to download for free on my patreon, the link is in the description :)

Hey, Thomas, may I ask, what blender theme do you use? Also how do you change your vertex color, default mesh color, etc?

@@ThomasColin3D Thank you. :)

[@fv4202x]

blender noob here, can someone tell my why should I implement these topologies to my models? I can have same result without that good topology and less tris. Especially on non spherical objects

[@vk8a8]

absolutely beautiful. you came up with that on the spot?

[@ThomasColin3D]

Thanks! Yes I did 🙂

[@muhammedmusthafa5385]

My helmet ended up like uneven surfaces, how can I fix that? 🤔

Organic modeling is quite hard yeah, but this model was rather easy!

[@Binge-Minge]

Great tutorial, love watching how easy you make it look! Weird thing about your voice, it sounds as if you are using compression but it isn't kicking in fast enough so you are real loud for a split second each time you speak. 🤣

[@ThomasColin3D]

Yeah I know 😂

how can you give evently thickness on this object

With a solidify modifier, you can click on "even thickness"
