The whole time I was thinking I wonder if he could make a video on corners and topology for them and then you said you were thinking about doing just that. I would certainly appreciate that! Thanks so much for this video great information
Hello, I loved this video. I didn't know about this channel or your school. I'm thinking about learning to model 3D products and hardsurface. Many years ago I worked with 3Dmax, but then I moved on to other things and forgot. I don't know which one to choose, Maya or Blender. I hope you can help me. Regards.
Thank you for this amazing video!! I have a small question, when I am doing the same step as video at 2:45, I change the center by hotkey D, but after that, I couldn't turn back to the world center or object center when I am in the vertex mode or edge, does anyone have the same issue?
You hold Ctrl+Shift Right Click and reset your pivot back to Object or World. Another way you can do it is by opening the 'Tool Settings' options in the top right corner and selecting 'Reset' in the Pivot options. Hope this helps!
I'm coming from being trained in architecture (but the old-school, pre-CAD), but your work helped me a lot in "topology"-- because I would always end up on the side of being precise, so where you said, "Now, we're going to compare a 32-bit sphere w/ a 64-bit sphere, I would have already started on a 128--bit sphere...Maya is the right software for me, b/c I think spatial (visual++). I'm importing a model from another software...I can see how most of it would have to be redone, which is great, except for a few key pieces. I know the first thing I'm going to do is deleting lines and lines and lines. Thank you!
Amazing video, super insightful. I’m new to 3D so my vocabulary isn’t the greatest, but around the 5:40 mark how did you add faces to the interior of the helmet?
He extruded the entire helmet (ctrl e) moved it in the local z axis by -0.5 to push the new faces inwards, then mesh > reverse to reverse the normals because it was effectively inside out
Thanks for the video! I was struggling with this helmet haha. I'm wondering if there's a certain reason you use cube and cylinder? I was trying to extract faces from smoothed cube. I couldn't make it. But as a newbie, I wanna know how to choose the first object when modeling something. I think this point is the most difficult one to learn :(
Yeah, it's tough since the reference isn't orthographic reference. The key thing is to use the reference as a guide and regularly check the perspective view port to make sure the proportions look correct.
so, Im merging two objects together and make thema signle object..when I run a bool subtract ..it only cuts half..and then there ugly geos...what is the fix?
I am lost on how to do the corners on the eye visor. If you add in vertical edge loops is causes creasing. I learned that long ago, and even your own video states (th-cam.com/video/bQqr8ImjScU/w-d-xo.html). This isn't meant as a bash as your videos are great. I am just confused on why this isn't addresses here is all.

Starting out by merging the cylinder and smoothed cube is something I wouldn't have thought of, but makes so much sense for saving time.
Been doing maya for like a year now just as a hobby and I still find this damn helmet so difficult to make 😂
It's trickier than it appears, took me a couple tries to get it right!
This guy as mad and insane.. dedication for his work just wow.. ❤

Yeah, hoping to have that done within the week!
Might be a stupid question but... How does he combine the edges at 2:40? I'm like 2 weeks into maya but I love this helmet :)
Look into Vertex Snapping, and the Merge Vertices command in the Maya Documentation. (Or find a video on the subject if you prefer)

Looking forward to following this tutorial!

@@OnMars3D thank you so much! It works to me!
what the website name for reference?
can someone tell me how to get that vertex transform tool , which was shown at 2:05 mins. Thanks in advance.
Sure, that's the 'Lattice' tool in Maya. Go to Deform>Lattice and you will find that tool.
@@OnMars3D thanks for your help

Using Multi cut for details and fixing tris
Please help T-T
Thanks for the input!
Cooool, thanks!!
Glad you like it!
Osm 👌
Thanks!!
Really nice tutorial!
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks alot! I am wondering what editor you use to have the refeerence images on the side?
I use Pure Ref: www.pureref.com/
You should have more subs
Thanks! Appreciate the kinds words.
when i work from the side the front looks different its hard if its not the exact same size

@@OnMars3D Yeah I’ll just keep trying
thanks a lot. subscribed.
Thanks for subbing!
