WEBVTT 00:04.530 --> 00:06.710 Hello everybody and welcome to this lecture. 00:06.720 --> 00:08.590 We are taking a different path. 00:08.610 --> 00:10.410 This is Michael from the future. 00:10.590 --> 00:15.570 And after reading some of the comments and discussions we've had on the course itself some people are 00:15.580 --> 00:21.210 finding if we do something different with the ears you get a better third distribution over the top 00:21.210 --> 00:21.710 of them. 00:21.720 --> 00:25.620 So I just want to run through what some of you have discovered as you've been going through this. 00:25.620 --> 00:30.680 And one of the primary reasons for that difference is simply because when I'm doing my modelling you 00:30.680 --> 00:32.100 don't you're doing yours. 00:32.100 --> 00:36.150 We can end up with slightly different meshes so we will naturally end up with different results. 00:36.150 --> 00:37.290 So we have our bunny. 00:37.290 --> 00:42.480 As it stands here now what we can go ahead and do is have a look at these is insitu some are going to 00:42.480 --> 00:48.150 go into edit mode now because we made the is even though they're separately and then we join them to 00:48.150 --> 00:49.030 this mesh. 00:49.140 --> 00:53.520 They can still be selected quite easily by using the L key. 00:53.550 --> 00:58.920 It selects all the linked geometry someone to select both my ears now and delete them. 00:58.920 --> 01:00.510 I'm just going to get rid of them completely. 01:00.510 --> 01:04.890 And we're going to try making them using a different methodology so I'm going to go ahead and delete 01:04.890 --> 01:09.160 those verses Okay so special thanks here to Alberto. 01:09.160 --> 01:15.270 He's come up and discuss this in quite detail and worked out his own issues when it came to these is 01:15.270 --> 01:17.910 he was ending up with some very patchy is. 01:18.030 --> 01:25.230 So if I go ahead and add in a euv Sphere just here but I want to make sure I'm in object mode and not 01:25.230 --> 01:25.780 edit mode. 01:25.800 --> 01:28.920 I'm going to go ahead and add in uv's Sphere. 01:29.190 --> 01:30.720 And we're going to have to do some stuff with that. 01:30.720 --> 01:31.710 But would do that in a moment. 01:31.710 --> 01:36.780 The first thing I'm going to do is go to the object itself and make sure it's named something appropriately. 01:36.780 --> 01:42.000 In this case I'm going to call it is because we're going to leave them as a separate mesh object as 01:42.000 --> 01:42.400 well. 01:42.540 --> 01:46.800 Now this isn't going to be the model that I will continue through the rest of the lectures we have to 01:46.800 --> 01:51.400 highlight there's always another way of doing something and it's not quite working out for you. 01:51.420 --> 01:53.660 This may be the solution. 01:53.700 --> 01:56.580 So we have this object is obviously far too large. 01:56.580 --> 01:58.850 Now I'm going to have to remember to apply my scale in a bit. 01:58.850 --> 02:05.730 But if I scale this down an end of place in the head roughly the right place scale in the x direction 02:05.730 --> 02:07.130 they're just to squish it. 02:07.450 --> 02:13.050 That's a reasonable start and I'm going to rotate it around the x axis as well so that the pole at the 02:13.050 --> 02:19.020 very top is facing backwards a little and I'm going to take this moment and this opportunity to also 02:19.050 --> 02:21.210 add a mirror modifier to it. 02:21.300 --> 02:26.970 So I don't have to worry about the other ear as well we're going to be reflecting about the x axis which 02:26.970 --> 02:31.910 is absolutely fine that's what we want to do but of course because it will be going around its own origin 02:31.920 --> 02:33.300 we need to a mirror object. 02:33.300 --> 02:35.150 In this case I'm going to use the rabbit. 02:35.220 --> 02:40.290 There we go we've got that in the right place and now we're going to use proportional editing as well 02:40.290 --> 02:41.780 just to help us out here. 02:41.820 --> 02:48.570 So I'm going to go ahead into edit mode and select this very top vertex on the very top because it is 02:48.570 --> 02:51.090 the very top vertex if I said that once more time. 02:51.090 --> 02:51.500 Right. 02:51.570 --> 02:53.190 I got that and I can go ahead and grab it. 02:53.190 --> 02:57.680 And of course oh I have proportional it's internal but it's to the extreme at the moment. 02:57.690 --> 03:03.530 But I don't want it and you see here with it turned on and just toned down a little I can stretch these 03:03.530 --> 03:06.230 is up perhaps a little bit more than before. 03:06.240 --> 03:10.110 Now it looks a bit odd something to undo that and I'm just going to try again and remember you don't 03:10.110 --> 03:11.950 have to do this in one operation. 03:12.120 --> 03:14.610 In this case I'm going to drag it up on the z axis. 03:14.610 --> 03:17.170 First of all just get them roughly the right height. 03:17.250 --> 03:22.560 In fact at this point it would be very prudent of me to jump into the side view and have a look at how 03:22.560 --> 03:24.250 they're really looking. 03:24.850 --> 03:27.890 Okay they're looking a bit on the small side there. 03:27.930 --> 03:31.320 So I'm going to enlarge that again and lift it up. 03:31.320 --> 03:36.330 Now the bottom bits here I do want them bulging out probably around this loop here so I'm going to scale 03:36.330 --> 03:40.980 that loop out and again with proportional editing turned on. 03:42.090 --> 03:44.700 There we go they're starting to look a bit better there. 03:44.790 --> 03:49.550 So now we can grab this top vertex again and I'm going to pull over this time bringing out. 03:49.710 --> 03:53.480 But once again with proportional editing turned on I can pull it out. 03:53.550 --> 03:56.040 So it's just a bit more dynamic there. 03:56.130 --> 04:00.180 And of course now we can think about where and how are we going to push that in. 04:00.180 --> 04:04.250 Well we've got a series of edge loops that we can go ahead and grab here. 04:04.260 --> 04:06.690 I'm going to actually grab a load of face loops. 04:06.690 --> 04:07.310 I'm going to grow. 04:07.320 --> 04:08.130 Or even. 04:08.190 --> 04:15.000 Yeah that's you circle select in this case and just try and keep it going all the way up to May be there 04:15.000 --> 04:15.770 or so. 04:17.060 --> 04:19.310 And again there's always going to be more than one way of doing this. 04:19.310 --> 04:22.560 I think that's a reasonable selection. 04:22.840 --> 04:24.050 Yeah that looks good. 04:24.050 --> 04:26.420 And then I can move those inwards. 04:26.420 --> 04:31.640 And again with proportional editing turned on I can make sure that it only affects a small proportion 04:31.670 --> 04:32.350 of them. 04:32.360 --> 04:35.960 We've of course got to make sure we don't force geometry through itself. 04:35.960 --> 04:37.340 Let's come out of there. 04:37.340 --> 04:44.300 Switch the whole select everything here and then switch all this stuff to smooth shaving just to have 04:44.600 --> 04:45.910 a different look at it. 04:45.920 --> 04:46.430 So there we go. 04:46.430 --> 04:48.190 There's some other is building up there. 04:48.190 --> 04:52.360 And of course you can do about editing this to your heart's desire. 04:52.470 --> 04:59.120 And for instance here I probably want that just a little bit wider side of scale on the y axis at any 04:59.120 --> 05:02.950 point of course we can hop into cycles just to see what it looks like there. 05:03.020 --> 05:08.570 And I'm not too happy with this edge around here but that may just because it's quite low poly at the 05:08.570 --> 05:08.870 moment. 05:08.870 --> 05:15.110 Again we can add in a subdivision surface modify and see if that smooths things out look so much better. 05:15.110 --> 05:16.920 So that's what I think was going on there. 05:17.060 --> 05:20.270 And you know you can build up this year to your heart's content. 05:20.270 --> 05:26.180 Now the other thing that Alberto did mention is that when he was trying to join everything together 05:26.600 --> 05:32.000 it still ended up being quite patchy so when it comes to applying the air the material the particle 05:32.000 --> 05:37.490 system in a few moments where we set up the hairs when we start getting to that point you may decide 05:37.700 --> 05:41.350 you want to leave the is a separate object and that's absolutely fine. 05:41.350 --> 05:44.140 In this case that's not going to cause us any issues. 05:44.150 --> 05:50.180 In fact in many cases it might make your life a bit easier when it comes to placing the years on here 05:50.180 --> 05:50.600 now. 05:50.780 --> 05:57.230 Finally I'm just going to lift all a says lift that's up make sure that only V is selected. 05:57.410 --> 06:02.540 Lift those up and going to lift it up completely above and just finish this off by grabbing the bottom 06:02.930 --> 06:05.000 virtex or thereabouts. 06:05.000 --> 06:08.680 There we go grab the bottom one there and then I'm just going to pull it into the model. 06:08.690 --> 06:12.400 But I'm going to make sure I grab enough of it is as well to pull them in. 06:12.410 --> 06:13.560 There we go. 06:13.610 --> 06:15.690 I like four way that's coming together. 06:15.890 --> 06:21.230 Excellent so I just wanted to share the other option with you guys as Alberto did find it helped him 06:21.230 --> 06:24.110 massively when it comes to the model itself. 06:24.110 --> 06:26.890 Of course let's just have a quick look over our model here. 06:27.020 --> 06:28.130 Just check a few things. 06:28.130 --> 06:32.560 So the scale we could do with applying the scale there so let's go ahead and do that. 06:32.810 --> 06:34.970 And we've got the eyeballs. 06:35.240 --> 06:36.700 Let's have a look at the eyes. 06:36.710 --> 06:40.470 They could also do with this scale being applied to them and the. 06:40.610 --> 06:45.760 Of course we've scaled that initially when we grab the u v sphere and started manipulating them. 06:45.770 --> 06:48.260 So I'll go ahead and apply the scale there as well. 06:48.260 --> 06:52.700 Always remember to do that nice and early because if you go ahead and do it later on it can cause you 06:52.700 --> 06:53.460 some issues. 06:53.630 --> 06:58.670 And here just looking at it we can make these just a little bit wider. 06:58.670 --> 07:00.670 There we go that looks a bit better. 07:00.680 --> 07:01.480 Perfect. 07:01.680 --> 07:05.410 Of course you can move them in position them out and do. 07:05.510 --> 07:09.250 Oh that was forward position them out ever so slightly. 07:09.260 --> 07:10.030 There we go. 07:10.190 --> 07:10.980 Excellent. 07:11.000 --> 07:15.080 Looking forward to seeing how you guys are getting a wanted to share this with you and I'll see you 07:15.080 --> 07:17.180 all in the next lecture.
