Im new in 3d modeling, and have done some animation and stuffs in blender.. now I want to switch to Maya. I have not even looked at it so far. After watching bunch of random videos of you and reading comments, It looks like you are the best instructor. you have even replied every comments with solution. I have subscribed and want to go ahead with your channel. :-)
For the top crest part of the helm (4:00-10:00), you could have taken a sphere that same size as the one you started with, rotated in X & Y so the latitudinal axis was along the center-line of the helmet. Then delete unneeded faces (everything except the strip along the middle) and extrude the crest outwards. It would have saved you time lining up the bottom with the helmet.
sorry my english is propably too bad to explain here is screenshot: ctrlv.cz/Rt9N Would also like to know your opinion on my first 3D gun model venomarts.cz/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Scar-H_00000-2.png
Hey Mike about models with multiple parts on them how would you go about modeling them do you just have them inside each other or do you combine them? I'm taking a 3D modeling course and the way we go about it is weird. we cut the faces out where the piece would be then attach them at the vertices
Hi Mike, I'm trying to model the mouthiece of a Clone Commander from Star Wars Episode 3 (if you type into Google image, Commander Cody Order 66 you'll see exactly what im talking about). Im very confused as to how to do the bottom half of it that fold around underneath on each side. Like i started with the top with a plane and moded it vertice by vertice into place, then i started edge extruding in increments around the curved bend and down, but now i'm trying to rotate and go underneath to wrap back around (i can't link an image here can i?) can you maybe tell me or very quickly show me how you would approach this? I'm a long time subscriber, LOVE your work.
you know, like select the desired edge along the spheres surface, then goto modify->Convert->Convert Polygon Edge to Curve. then select the new curve, move into place, and shift select the face of the cube, and extrude along selected curve in the extrude options...easy peasy
This is great. Would love another video like this perhaps a Stormtrooper helmet plenty of great ref pictures and blueprints for them.
your tutorials always great and so helpful and explained it so well thank you mr. Mike

How do you deal with tris
Thank you so much, Mike Hermes sir. Great tutorial.
Thank you CL

Would be great if you also modeled the whole armour for a nice rounded series.
You're amazing Mike!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Thank you Cintia and thank you for your support
What a great tutorial. thank you
Thank you for this video, i totally forgot about multi cut!!!!!! would of saved me so much time two days ago lol.
You are very welcome Vanessa...
please upload some v-ray advance tutorial.
Great tutorial as always. Requesting a kawasaki ninja 300
eagerly waiting for the next part *~*
Coming soon
Really intrested how will you deal with side sphare like if you will model that or use normals
Hi Venom, not sure what you mean. Side sphare ?

That's ok. You will have to watch part 2 to find out :-) As for your model, looks fantastic !
cool

That is a method typically used in gaming. There is more than one way
I cannot open de link for download :(
thanks
amazing
Thank you
please mike teach full zbrush from begining to end
:-)

Try tusing a sphere and two cylinders and attech the vertices
sry i may be wrong but i why didnt u just use a smoothed cube would be much easyer and like u did u just have unnecessary triangles
I could have
thanks mike.
You are very welcome
greatt...
Thanks
making the fin...why not extrude along a curve? rather than extruding over and over and over? hmm
you know, like select the desired edge along the spheres surface, then goto modify->Convert->Convert Polygon Edge to Curve. then select the new curve, move into place, and shift select the face of the cube, and extrude along selected curve in the extrude options...easy peasy
