Slowly but my method finds its shape.

These are the basics! It is some kind of core that must be seen if you want to work my way. It' is not for CAD users it is for 3D Artists.
We will explore Revolve, Rail Revolve and LOFT.

Advantages:

1. Allow to build organic and hard surface stuff.

2. Create simple topology with one surface and one seam.

3. Practically no need to fillet (no pain any more)

4. Dynamic updates

5. A very little amount of edges. It allow to save great amount of PC power.


Disadvantage.

Not good for precise CAD modelling.

Thanks for posting these Andrei.

I've download most of them, just need to find time watch them. I'm sure when I do, I will pick up some very handy tips which will speed up my workflow and give me cleaner, smoother results.

Thanks for making your "Basics" tutorial Andrei.

I will certainly look at Rail Revolve in a new way!

I also need to re-think my use of Fillets and keep them to a minimum.

Ed

Hay guys no problem) If you have any questions, let me know)

Some new videos,

Transitioned Recessed Surface, very simple and cool method.



and some details of making this:

Thanks for your tutorials Andrei.

You give a lot of helpfull and detailed information.

About your video Blend method (Moi 3D Blend), I have a question:

After 50 seconds the 15 cv points are shown.

One second later the cv points are still there but repositioned while the form is still unchanged.

I try to do the same to check this method, but I do not succeed.

Can you tell me how you do that?

Raoul

You have to use this comand: ShrinkTrimmedSrf. It will shrink surface to it's size.

Aah,

So simple.

I keep on learning everyday!

Thanks Andrei.

I can tell you more, may be you do not know, If you delete all edges of trimed surface before you aplly that shrink comand you can restore all surface! This way you can also remove holes in surfaces.

Hi Andrei,

I was not aware of that.

Thanks again!

Raoul

Some new stuff: MOI 3D, ADVANCED SWEEP, LOFT/BOOLEAN

Bravo! Absolutly very efficient!

Thanx Pilou :)
And the example of using advansed LOFT/Boolean :

Andrei - Thank you for taking the time to make these examples.

Ed

Ed, no problem :)

NEW TUTORIAL, I'll made this Rockets, using a lot of diffrent Techniques from simple to advanced. I made accent on Techniques. If you have any questions ask me indicating the time!

What a movie!

Have you some drawings on paper or photos or you are modeling directly on the screen following your inspiration ?

Have you some crashes of Moi during a so long modeling?

I made sometimes some sketches to define base shapes. But All other stuff I made in MOI using my inspiration. My aim is to use MOI as tool for concept art, all that tutorials that I made in last time it is an affort to find some techniques for speed modeling for concept art. I coolect all that techniques to not think about how to model this or that, but just to think only about design.

Thx for the infos !

I love psytrance! :-)
