I made a hole!

[Korken]

Hi all!

 

Well this is my first try to make a hole in a sphere.

And I am very proud of the resault!

 

Btw, what is this called? When making these holes.

perhaps a boolean after the mathematician Boole:

Or what do you call it?

 

[Korken]

A hole

punch? drill?

[KenH]

I assume you mean a Boolean operation. Good start.

[Korken]

Yes, I mean Boolean thingie.

Hehe, now can i make a topedo tube for my Carrier.

We need more threads like this... so ripe.

[Emilio Le Roux]

Do you have a mesh of that?

 

I think that hole you made is among the hardest modeling tasks in AM. Very well done.

[Korken]

Excuse me but what is a mesh?

wireframe view

[Korken]

Ohh. I see, well here is wireframe!

wasnt expecting that...for some reason...

Yay. Glad to see someone else has figured it out as well.

 

Personally, it doesn't seem that hard because all I do is draw the shape of a hole and then attach to a model's conture and work from there. Good job.

[Korken]

huh?

I would be interested to see how smooth your sphere's surface is leading up to the hole.

 

Please, try setting the specular colour of your model to white, the specular intensity and size to 50 and re-render.

 

Thanks.

[Korken]

Shure.

Not perfect but atleast a start.

Definitely one of the harder things to do in A:M. I haven't explored this specific challenge, but I've tried similar things and it's not easy. I personally would like an even smoother surface adjacent to the edge, but this is a good attempt and it would probably serve most purposes quite well. Good job!

I did something similar to fake a boolean

Nice jub on your project

[Korken]

Thx all!

I'm just a beginner though i want to become a great animator/modeler.

But I'm so bad at making smooth sufaces.
