@TheMG3D Vintage mic for a game project! Struggling to hit a nice texel density though.

Show me what you’re working on 👀

Here's another exploration image done for @ironwoodtweets 's Pacific Drive : Whispers in the woods. Can't stress enough how fun these were to make, and the amount of freedom I had on these. Thanks again IW for your trust <3

@ThatNgonGuy Will keep that, in mind, thanks! I've already tried incorporating what You said, and it works. Got one last question though. When modeling circled parts, should I model them before applying Sub-D or after applying?

Ok so first off, I would *highly* recommend against using bevels for tighter edges like that in subdiv. Not only will you have a harder time working with it, it also produces worse results than standard control loops like in my paintover. Same with not adding supports on both sides of the bevel like I show in the bigger bevel there. The second issue of the line/crease between the two corners is a result of (90% sure) not reading the reference correctly. I personally don't think the top and bottom halves are at different angles. Judging by the one side view, it looks like that shorter corner is also angled outward and the slope looks the same as the taller area. So my guess is that face is fully planar, at least until you can't see it under the lower lip.

I fixed this topo while still using all quads. Sometimes it's best not to overthink things.

@ThatNgonGuy Yep, here it is

@SakiraEight I mean, it's always ok to use ngons in subD, it only depends if it shades well or not. Can you show me what your predicament is?

@ThatNgonGuy When is it okay to use n-gons when modelling with Sub-D and what's a general example of a good toplogy on a high poly model? I'm currently trying to remake a camera model, and have found myself in a bit of a pickle when modelling it.

@SakiraEight Always!

@ThatNgonGuy Hey! Can I ask a question about Sub-D topology when modelling high poly assets?

I also fixed it with an ngon for the lols

@ArtOfPilgrim Anything that has curved surfaces for some reason. Sometimes I manage it, other times not

Hey 3D artists - what objects humble you? Let's see if we can get some help going in the comments.

I am leaving

@ThatNgonGuy Hey! I got a question. I’m making an asset for my game which is also a portfolio piece. Can a high poly have tris / ngons if the surface doesn’t deform in any way, and is that considered an okay practice for portfolio pieces?

Not to show up my boss's ngons or anything but... Maybe use double inner loops instead 😁

@xitzvinii @f4micom By using dark magic, that’s how

@f4micom how does it gets to 3.6GHz is somehow my biggest question about this abomination
