next project
 

This is my next project .. and suggestions from where to start .. ?

And one more question . How i can make hole without extude a face .. can it be done with curve .. ?

here is my technique of doing that things .. but when i want to make some complicate hole ... or smth like that ...i get stuck with extrude face option ...

So is there another way of doing holes in poly :)

any replays .. ? at least about my question ...

you could use boolean but i would stick with extrude face. what exactly is the problem that you are having? Be a bit more specific and you might get more replies mate.;)

cool idea for a project by the way. this should be fun to do.
:beer:

thats a doozy right there. I cant even figure out how id begin something like that either:confused:

Think I would build it as if it was upright then use lattices in cirtian areas to deform of to the desired shape then texture using some good bump maps

Hey pal.

I would not approach this project by doing multiple extrudes. This can cause its own issues.

I would do it like:

• Create a poly cube to match the bottom most corner (bottom right) and get it to the size you want
• Use multiple extrudes along the base where the window uprights are and continue along until the end
• Create the uprights with an extrude until you get the desired height
• Delete those faces at the top of the uprights, they are not needed
• Duplicate the geometry to create the 1st floor and again for the 2nd and so on...
• On the last duplicate delete the upright geometry and use the append polygon tool to fill the gaps left
• Combine the bottom and first level geometry and merge the interconnecting verts, do this for each floor
• Once done you should have a complete front face, add any required details and texture

Now do as Steve (Gster) suggested and use a lattice to defrom the building.

Enjoy...

Here is a MA file to help out what I mean...

ok 10x all when i model smth from this building i will let ya know :)
