Topostudy - Low Poly Cylinder Study

[@3DJay429]

nice MX your smashing all these topostudys. That 3D mouse navigation is hella dope btw,

[@masterxeon1001]

It really is!

[@eroc1944]

so pure.

[@masterxeon1001]

so crazy

Highpoly is heavy to make for computer, lowpoly is heavy to make for a human. Sadly, Blender's viewport shading lost the reflective metalness specular (it is sort of glossy now), so it is way harder to detect precise curvature issues for 2.8+ As a result everything looks extreemely flat, an else one reason we don't use it for modeling.

[@masterxeon1001]

aint that the truth. Gotta just make do with what is given.

The first mesh you did. Wouldn’t it be easier after adding the second cylinder to rotate it , so it matches the first cylinder segments a little bit more. This way avoiding tris? Great topo stuff!

[@masterxeon1001]

Probably. With smart enough planning it could be a breeze

He's trying to give himself harder problems to solve.

[@wrgy]

you have a very .. interesting.. meaning of fun

[@masterxeon1001]

ha yea. topostudies are a strange fun.

[@notronn1507]

In the end does topo really matter? If engons and tris aren’t the worst why do we over obsess if we are just going to add sub surf after all you can fix the topo after

[@masterxeon1001]

those are deep philosophical questions.

[@EdLrandom]

do you have a Space Navigator now?

[@cyrillimoges9372]

Yes, he got it probably

[@masterxeon1001]

yea

How do you move your cam like that, so smooth! 29:21 Love the video, makes my brain hurt.

@@masterxeon1001 nice, thank you!

[@jaunty_tunes]

​@@masterxeon1001 Saw a coworker using that, never asked him about it. Looks so cool, can't believe I've never heard of it! (10 years into this stuff) Was doing research and what do you think about this guy's comment? kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGfTgHxur6ythaM (6 mins in)

"So much work, but it'd just be pirated" LOL. Yeah.. I think I've even seen people make pro tutorials w/ pirated software.

[@masterxeon1001]

it almost promotes "not even trying". Which i can understand.
