I'm not very good at modelling because I'm an animator, but I'm trying to get better. You are precise, quick but not too quick AND you dont drone on for minutes at a time! You're really good at teaching! I'll be subscribing! :D
If anyone has access to Zbrush I would highly recommend simply using booleans to your hearts content and Dynamesh in Zbrush. If your looking to do traditional high poly work baked into low poly methods then this is a great way to create both models fast and easily. There really needs to be more vids or tutorials on this considering its the industry norm for most triple AAA games assets atm. The largest titles out there mostly use this- although they also use fusion.
When I click the add cylinder object it just adds a presized cylinder. It doesnt allow me to draw it on the screen interactively? Do you know why this is behaving this way?

At 5:56 you said to "hit V on the keyboard and just snap it to that vertex" to align the extruded edge, but I've never been able to do it that way. In my experience, I have to select the component(s), set the pivot to one corner vertex (insert > V > drag to corner vertex), and then press V and drag the selected component(s) to the vertex of whatever area I want to align with my selection. How were you able to shorten the process to just selecting that edge, pressing V, and hovering on a vertex to snap? I tried doing it in Maya just now and mine won't work unless I set the pivot to a corner vertex first.
Solid video with good info, the only thing I would mention is the speed at which you speak. It is easily understandable, however, the pace of speech just seems hurried, which takes away from an otherwise great tutorial.
@@JoshAntonio I checked out some of your more current videos and have subscribed! You've continued with great informative tutorials and your vocal instructions are very clean and punctual now.
you know.. idk why people love maya so much.. he's clearly taking too much time for a really simple shape. i know he's explaining but. too much of a struggle.. i would done this exact shape in blender .. like in two or three clicks.. there's bunch of Blender haters but i don't get it. which is easier.. "go to menu.. croll down to boolians.. then boolian cut" after that delete some edges manually... or in BLender *Shift+"-"* ... and that's it. idk which one is easier for you.. ?
I LOVE you adding the hotkey at the bottom while you use it. Non intrusive for people who already know it, but super helpful to those who don't!
More of these little mini modelling tutorials for small hard surface parts would be great!
Okay, sure thing 🙂
sometimes i forget ‘bout these cleanup topology and mirroring objects.. thx josh for making it like a drill exercise!
Nice clean little project. Well paced and presented. Thanks for the effort.
Glad you found it helpful 🙂

Thanks! :) Glad you find my videos helpful!
I had to slow down at 6.0X lol
to make a task like this allot easier id recommend trying the hardmesh plugin

You have to middle-mouse-button hover over the vertex to snap. That should do it for you :)
@@JoshAntonio Thank you so much. You just saved me several seconds, which really stack up when I have to do it over and over.

Yeah I’m sorry my old tutorials are awful! Please give some of my newer ones a watch and see that (hopefully) I’ve improved!

Great!!
Thanks, glad you liked it. 🙂
My boo leans creates extra divisions I don’t know why
Love this speaking speed. Please don't slow down!
cool
Please make more tutorial on maya.. and teach us tips and tricks also.. please make
More tutorials coming soon!
@@JoshAntonio we are waiting.. 😇
Hi, guys, it's B or V to snip the vertices
It's V to snap
But at 7:14 doesn’t the object you scaled to -1 have reversed normals?
No that’s not the case, normals should be all good 👌
i thought i was gonna see some tool like retopolize etc not manually cleaning lol but anyway nice already can do this
Thx for the video. A small observation though, you are speaking way too fast like you are thinking out loud. Might not be ideal. Appreciate the video.
Dope (;
True is there's no easy clean way to do it like nurbs can...unfortunately.. besides realize shape can do it or alias 2020... nice tutorial still
Near the ends of your sentences, sometimes, you sort of trail off and start mumbling and it's hard to understand you.
