1 00:00:06,030 --> 00:00:13,470 All right let's take a look at the Bevil modifier what it is how we can use it and what it does and 2 00:00:13,470 --> 00:00:15,700 the different options we have with it. 3 00:00:15,900 --> 00:00:21,630 So the Bevil modifier is basically as a name implies it's going to add a nice Bevil to our gear here 4 00:00:21,870 --> 00:00:27,910 without actually having to add it with geometry just like all modifiers do. 5 00:00:28,110 --> 00:00:29,890 Before we do that let's hit tab. 6 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:37,800 Go into edit mode to select everything each to extrude and bring this down to give it some depth. 7 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:38,430 All right. 8 00:00:38,430 --> 00:00:40,650 Now back in Object mode. 9 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,740 Let's go to modifiers add modifier. 10 00:00:43,910 --> 00:00:47,370 Select Bevell and you can see what it does. 11 00:00:47,370 --> 00:00:49,880 Pretty cool so it rounds it. 12 00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:57,870 It gives it above all kinds of rounds it out here and gives a nice contour and edge to our gear all 13 00:00:57,870 --> 00:00:58,970 around it. 14 00:00:59,070 --> 00:01:00,290 Pretty awesome. 15 00:01:00,300 --> 00:01:06,680 Now you're probably wondering what the heck these these lines or creases in our gear are. 16 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,970 Well that's coming from the array modifier. 17 00:01:10,020 --> 00:01:18,750 So if we hit merge on the array modifier it will merge the arrays together and then we have to hit first 18 00:01:18,750 --> 00:01:26,110 and last because this will merge the first array which is this one our original mesh and the last one. 19 00:01:26,430 --> 00:01:27,820 So go ahead and click that. 20 00:01:28,050 --> 00:01:35,610 And you could always play with the distance amount and this will affect how far it needs to be in order 21 00:01:35,610 --> 00:01:36,810 for it to merge. 22 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,380 I'm going to put it back to point 0 1. 23 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,500 Now you can see another problem that we have. 24 00:01:42,570 --> 00:01:47,100 And that's the name of the game you know entrepreneurship means solving problems. 25 00:01:47,110 --> 00:01:53,400 Let's go ahead and solve our problem or also as an artist you can see that here we have some weird creases 26 00:01:53,550 --> 00:01:56,030 every quarter of our gear. 27 00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:01,770 The reason that is is because if we look inside our gear hit tab to go into edit mode you can see that 28 00:02:01,770 --> 00:02:04,880 we have a face right here which is unneeded. 29 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,910 And we have one here as well. 30 00:02:07,950 --> 00:02:09,910 So these two faces are here. 31 00:02:09,990 --> 00:02:14,590 Go ahead and select them and then hit X. delete paces. 32 00:02:14,790 --> 00:02:20,840 And now you can see that our gear is hollow and those nasty creases went away. 33 00:02:20,850 --> 00:02:22,870 So this is the bevel modifier. 34 00:02:22,920 --> 00:02:29,310 The two options that we use the most on the bevel modifier is the width right here which will affect 35 00:02:29,370 --> 00:02:38,130 the size or the strength of the bevel and the segments which will basically affect the smoothness or 36 00:02:38,130 --> 00:02:43,250 the hardness of the bevel by adding in Edge loops as you can see. 37 00:02:44,110 --> 00:02:50,030 So I'm going leave this at one and leave this at point four so that's all the way up. 38 00:02:50,210 --> 00:02:51,920 And those are the two main options. 39 00:02:51,920 --> 00:02:54,790 You will be using on your bevel modifier. 40 00:02:54,830 --> 00:02:57,840 Now you could go ahead and play around with the other options see what they do. 41 00:02:57,920 --> 00:03:01,310 And that's one of the best things I recommend just play around with stuff. 42 00:03:01,310 --> 00:03:03,680 Don't be scared to push buttons and see what happens. 43 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:05,690 Because that's a lot how you learn. 44 00:03:05,690 --> 00:03:12,230 You know you can learn of course from myself and from courses and tutorials but you could also learn 45 00:03:12,230 --> 00:03:13,550 from testing things out. 46 00:03:13,550 --> 00:03:18,320 Trial and error and just playing around with it and seeing what it does and you can find some pretty 47 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,470 awesome things about blender. 48 00:03:20,780 --> 00:03:30,340 So another thing I want to mention is that the the the order in which you're modifiers are affects how 49 00:03:30,340 --> 00:03:31,510 it affects the object. 50 00:03:31,510 --> 00:03:39,430 So if I hit the slow up arrow right here you can see that it affects our our gear in a different way 51 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,310 so now we have these weird creases and cuts in our gear. 52 00:03:43,580 --> 00:03:48,300 So you want to make sure to have the bevel modifier below the array modifier. 53 00:03:48,410 --> 00:03:52,230 And you can add many many more modifiers on here. 54 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:57,830 Just keep in mind that the order in which they are in will affect them differently because the first 55 00:03:57,830 --> 00:04:02,700 modifier is the one that's a that's applied first and then the second is applied second. 56 00:04:02,780 --> 00:04:04,160 So on and so forth. 57 00:04:04,250 --> 00:04:09,890 So if we have the bubble on top it will apply the bubble first and then array it. 58 00:04:09,890 --> 00:04:13,670 So we want it to array and then bevel it. 59 00:04:13,790 --> 00:04:14,110 All right. 60 00:04:14,110 --> 00:04:23,480 So let's do one last quick thing to give it a better square look and contour to it hitting tab to go 61 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:24,770 into edit mode. 62 00:04:25,100 --> 00:04:29,420 Let's hit control our and bring in an edge loop up here. 63 00:04:30,750 --> 00:04:33,700 And let's bring one down here as well. 64 00:04:33,930 --> 00:04:37,680 And now you could really see how the bevel is affecting our gear. 65 00:04:37,710 --> 00:04:41,700 Pretty cool if I turn this off with a little icon here. 66 00:04:41,910 --> 00:04:46,870 You can see what it looks like before the bevel and after the bubble. 67 00:04:46,950 --> 00:04:48,560 So that is pretty cool. 68 00:04:48,570 --> 00:04:56,220 That is how you add or that's how you make a gear and how you can make it quickly using the array modifier 69 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,500 and the bevel modifier. 70 00:04:58,500 --> 00:05:04,920 Now in the next video we're going to take a look at two quick things that we can do to add more detail 71 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:11,670 including the boolean modifier which is really cool so we're going to be taking a look at yet another 72 00:05:11,670 --> 00:05:16,380 modifier and you're going to have a lot of modifiers in your arsenal. 73 00:05:16,380 --> 00:05:18,010 So let's take a look at that. 74 00:05:18,030 --> 00:05:18,790 Great job. 75 00:05:18,900 --> 00:05:19,970 Save your scene. 76 00:05:19,980 --> 00:05:26,930 So go to File Save As and let's save it as your original scene or as a new file. 77 00:05:27,030 --> 00:05:28,670 And let's continue again. 78 00:05:28,710 --> 00:05:33,870 Make sure to save all your files as we will be using them as we progress through this course. 79 00:05:33,870 --> 00:05:37,230 All right see you in the next video. 80 00:05:37,230 --> 00:05:40,340 Look at the doggy reminds you. 81 00:05:40,350 --> 00:05:42,510 My dog had a golden retriever. 82 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,800 It's time time to believe in yourself. 83 00:05:46,020 --> 00:05:47,690 Time to see your worth. 84 00:05:47,700 --> 00:05:49,970 Time to pursue your dreams. 85 00:05:49,980 --> 00:05:53,970 There's never a better day than right now to go after what you want. 86 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:59,340 Take the first step today towards the realization of a better tomorrow that your future self will thank 87 00:05:59,340 --> 00:06:00,250 you for. 88 00:06:00,570 --> 00:06:03,900 Ladies and gentlemen there is no better time than right now. 89 00:06:04,050 --> 00:06:06,870 So it's time to go to the next video. 90 00:06:06,870 --> 00:06:08,400 I'll see you there.
