Our 3D backhoe model is taking shape. Progressing past the initial block out stages, we're starting to finalize the hard-surface pieces of the machine. In part 3, I'd like to cover the creation of hydraulic lines and the advanced shrinkwrap technique for cutting construction lines on smooth shapes. Though given that I'm predicting this a month away, these topics are subject to change.
This complex model is a collaborative effort between instructor and Citizen members. The idea is to build this crazy thing together! If you're interested in contributing, please jump over to the Forum Thread to learn more!

[Q] How do super heave scenes get done? Those where you see a whole city and forest and stuff, with super dupper computers?

Was that guy wearing gloves?!? I bet those edges would have cut off his hand
Maybe 10000
Shawn, if you want to view mechanisms in animation, check out Thang010146 and Mechanical King in Youtube. They have THOUSANDS of videos, all on mechanism. Lots of ideas for engineers.
That is oddly satisfying
That would cost so much money to make
Jesus christ, how is that even possible
