my first model ever was terrible :(



coming to a theater near you

I don't want to see a 403 error in my theaters


absolutely horrible triangulation

absolutely horrible triangulation
I am aware, I still have to figure out how exactly Barnabus does it

I am aware, I still have to figure out how exactly Barnabus does it
not making it cave in all over and keeping it steady.

his geometry flows

bad triangulation reflects geometry that doesnt

show us a wireframe render?

I am aware, I still have to figure out how exactly Barnabus does it
Barnabas also uses smoothing groups instead of completely flat shading a model

not making it cave in all over and keeping it steady.
I took the 4 images, front back side and top, and built it up out of all vertices, outlining every line, detail, and then I turned it all into faces in the end, making sure the vertices never went out too far or in too far on the 4 images

I know its done differently

you should keep the edge lines flowing. don't "jump tracks". you're connecting vertices at weird shapes. to fill in, instead of connecting them where they should meet.
