Question

Hi and thanks for a great course! I am having trouble adding the last details to the back of the helmet. When I try to apply the difference operation for the cut-out of the centered piece it removes both objects. If I move the the cut-out object to the side and apply difference it behaves as expected. Could there be an issue with the difference operation over the center/symmetry line? Regards //Christian

Thanks for watching Christian! It's possible that there's a bug with the horizon of symmetry. Unfortunately I think the author ceased maintenance for the addon...I recommend submitting an issue to their github repo and perhpas we'll get an updated version: https://github.com/MadMinstrel/blender-sculpt-tools/issues

Thanks for the reply. I kind of worked around it. Messing about with decimate and applying difference with the objects in different orders got me there in the end.
