In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

selection mojo

hi,

I've been watching tutorial vids recently and i've noticed that the 'tutors' seem very slick at selection - i.e. in this clip, he drags a marquee across a number of faces and selects exactly what he needs, even tho the marquee clearly goes over other faces.
when I try this method I get all manner of strange selections; faces on the back, or deselecting some that I need selecting... are there other modifier keys or combinations that refine the selection I don't know about?

thanks
