Going through CG Cookie courses I got a while back (again), this time with the intent to work through the exercises. Starting with modeling. I'm focusing on archviz because of my work, and I'm going to try my darnest to bring real-world scale/measurements into my models (for better or worse).
Hi Martin! Yes, this is from the primitives exercise, but this isn't my first time watching the videos. Not everything done here was in object mode, so I'm guilty of not following along with the course strictly.
I did some extrude along normals, inset, mirror modifier, and scale commands while in the edit mode for a few of these primitives just to give them some depth for when I come back to materials and lighting later. My overall plan is to get better at modeling with real-world measurements. For now I'm trying to just model with numbers that are easy stand-ins.
Looking forward to re-watching these videos and fixing my model. Right now the chimney is hiding a gaping hold between the roof & the exterior walls, and the camera is hiding the other side with its position.
Thanks for dropping by and commenting!
Martin, I probably will try again with modifiers. Right now I know they exist but they're not as intuitive to me. I am very interested in less destructive workflows. I'll check back in when I've done some more of the modeling course. Almost done with part 1.
