WEBVTT 00:00.980 --> 00:05.240 Welcome to defining a Faces main face loops. 00:05.240 --> 00:11.240 Now this is going to be the continuation of a challenge in the last lecture so let's crack on and hop 00:11.240 --> 00:13.850 straight on over in a blender. 00:15.650 --> 00:22.280 Okay so we're back over in blender and I've got my head is coming along quite nicely and we've got no 00:22.340 --> 00:23.690 no's at the moment. 00:23.690 --> 00:27.940 We've got an eye loop although it's quite a basic one at the moment. 00:28.160 --> 00:33.950 We've got this loop running around here in the loop and kind of the mouth loop done there we may have 00:33.950 --> 00:35.330 to redo the mouth. 00:35.540 --> 00:39.950 Or I might have to redo my mouth depending on how the rest of it goes. 00:39.980 --> 00:43.850 And there is obviously an lack of knows at the moment. 00:43.850 --> 00:48.560 Now looking at the geometry that's here just going to hide a couple of panels there so we can see what's 00:48.560 --> 00:49.580 going on. 00:49.670 --> 00:57.590 And I am actually going to just combine a couple of faces and with a dissolve this face here and dissolve 00:57.650 --> 00:59.470 these two faces here. 00:59.510 --> 01:00.830 And these two here. 01:01.010 --> 01:06.170 And the reason for that is so I've got an edge loop down here but I can work with. 01:06.170 --> 01:11.770 Now I'm also going to have to at the same time just dissolve these vertices. 01:11.900 --> 01:13.700 Otherwise we won't have quads. 01:13.700 --> 01:15.500 Let's make sure that's working. 01:15.650 --> 01:16.310 Excellent. 01:16.310 --> 01:17.390 It is. 01:17.440 --> 01:22.930 So before I actually start creating the nose I need to think about what's going to happen. 01:23.060 --> 01:26.750 So I'm going to have an edge loop that runs under the eye and running down. 01:26.750 --> 01:34.430 So let's pop that in now and then I'm going to have the bridge of the nose edge loop that will be coming 01:34.440 --> 01:40.880 round and it will break off somewhere around here and flow down so the chain or just underneath the 01:40.880 --> 01:46.310 chin depending on where I place it and that leaves us in fact at this point in time. 01:46.310 --> 01:54.030 Before we go any further this floor grid that I've got I'm going to turn that off some time ago to display 01:54.030 --> 01:57.340 a grid floor just not in the way. 01:57.650 --> 02:01.210 So now I've got those edge loops in and defined. 02:01.250 --> 02:09.560 I can literally if you remember in the last lecture one of the things you can do to create a five pole 02:09.650 --> 02:16.830 is to extrude their riego So that will look a bit funny at the moment. 02:16.850 --> 02:21.310 Remember things often don't look right when you're constructing them. 02:21.620 --> 02:25.450 But we can move these bits about we can move that forward. 02:25.460 --> 02:27.120 We can move this bit down. 02:27.170 --> 02:33.050 It still doesn't negate the fact that now we've got an edge loop running around the nodes and that is 02:33.050 --> 02:38.280 obviously going to have to have a lot of refinement to make it look more like a nose again. 02:38.390 --> 02:40.670 But that is absolutely fine. 02:41.030 --> 02:46.430 Okay so the next part of the head that we need to focus on here I wouldn't need to but the next one 02:46.430 --> 02:52.380 I want to focus on is this bridge part here on the nose that's fine. 02:52.730 --> 02:58.760 So we need to decide where this loop is going to come round I'm going to take it down to this part of 02:58.760 --> 03:01.030 the chain and come up. 03:01.040 --> 03:04.150 But we need to decide where to put those five parcels. 03:04.250 --> 03:10.820 So were somewhat bounded by this going down here this face loop as it comes round so we can't go any 03:10.820 --> 03:11.740 further than here. 03:11.750 --> 03:19.260 So I'm going to place my five pole here and it's going to have to be here. 03:19.280 --> 03:21.330 There's no other ones to go on. 03:21.470 --> 03:27.610 So the first thing that we can do here is I'm going to grab the knife too and roughly cut to there. 03:27.740 --> 03:32.600 Now I can't cut across how can I cut across there yes I can sir. 03:32.640 --> 03:40.420 Triangle there initially and I'm going to solidify that knife cuts I'm going to put another trying goal. 03:40.490 --> 03:42.800 Is it going to be up here to guide that loop around. 03:42.800 --> 03:43.560 Yes it is. 03:43.560 --> 03:45.380 It's going to be from here to here. 03:45.380 --> 03:48.200 And of course usually we want to avoid Triangle's. 03:48.260 --> 03:55.080 Now once we've done that we can actually make it into a quad by cutting down here. 03:55.160 --> 04:01.760 Now that doesn't look right until you start shifting a couple of the vertices to maybe there and lift 04:01.760 --> 04:06.700 this one up a little on the press G twice to make sure they're going to move it too far away. 04:06.720 --> 04:11.890 There's a lot of refinement that's going to have to be done with all of these vertices. 04:11.900 --> 04:14.400 They're all higgledy piggledy in all over the place. 04:14.450 --> 04:19.270 But now we've done that we should find that we've got an edge loop running around there. 04:19.340 --> 04:21.590 We may have a triangle here. 04:21.620 --> 04:24.730 Do we have trained here we have to sort that out. 04:24.830 --> 04:27.030 We've got this edgeley running around here. 04:27.080 --> 04:32.550 This one running around here which is fine apart from the fact it's a wee bit high. 04:32.570 --> 04:34.270 A little bit high here. 04:34.380 --> 04:36.780 So let's grab these. 04:37.600 --> 04:42.010 Edges here berish G twice and lower than down here. 04:42.010 --> 04:45.730 This is far too close to the mouth loop. 04:45.950 --> 04:48.430 And I'm going to move those down as well. 04:48.430 --> 04:53.460 Look again these can be refined and refined and refined as the face takes shape. 04:53.470 --> 04:59.020 In fact we'll be hopping round and checking it how it looks or I've lost my side profile but I'll be 04:59.020 --> 05:03.500 looking at how it looks and refining in a bit more detail in a few moments. 05:03.520 --> 05:12.190 Now the next area we've got here is this mouth and I'm not liking it at the moment and there is what 05:12.190 --> 05:17.800 I want to say a neat trick but since we're actually got a bounding box running around the mouth area 05:18.100 --> 05:24.430 we can very quickly remake the edge loops that would make up the mouth area and then adjust them again 05:24.430 --> 05:25.300 in a bit. 05:25.300 --> 05:32.140 So for instance in order to do that I can go to face select here so I could make the mouth bigger and 05:32.140 --> 05:33.800 fill up the area around. 05:33.940 --> 05:38.360 Or I could just get rid of all of this. 05:39.550 --> 05:41.630 I hope this is going to work. 05:41.770 --> 05:43.180 And this area here. 05:43.200 --> 05:48.490 No just that one there some one to get rid of that I'm going to delete the faces so it leaves a nice 05:48.490 --> 05:51.000 big smile or look at that happy person. 05:51.010 --> 05:57.360 But now I should be able to select the edge loop running around it which I can and then I can fill that 05:57.360 --> 05:57.910 in. 05:59.140 --> 06:00.420 Looking good so far. 06:00.420 --> 06:06.250 Now that I've done that I can insets Now that looks horrible. 06:06.250 --> 06:07.480 It's nice in settings. 06:07.480 --> 06:11.870 Great because it can actually create a nice face loop running around the outside of something. 06:11.950 --> 06:16.200 So that would be perfect for the I think I've just clicked away and ruined was about to show you. 06:16.210 --> 06:16.900 No I haven't. 06:16.900 --> 06:23.310 It's still there but here it's a hmm why need to do here is scroll down on the insets area. 06:23.320 --> 06:25.120 That's just make this a bit bigger. 06:25.300 --> 06:27.900 And turn off the boundary function. 06:27.910 --> 06:35.530 And then on the mirror we can see we've got well we no longer got a problem with it running around the 06:35.530 --> 06:35.770 edge. 06:35.770 --> 06:37.520 In fact it forms the mouth area. 06:37.570 --> 06:41.930 Then I can inset again and once more for good luck. 06:44.380 --> 06:45.230 Let's zoom in and. 06:45.250 --> 06:45.540 Oh. 06:45.550 --> 06:51.520 Something has gone horribly horribly wrong there it's just undo that last one and see what was going 06:51.610 --> 06:52.370 on. 06:53.280 --> 06:58.020 I think just one of these verses is in a very horrible place compared to the others. 06:58.020 --> 06:58.540 Yes. 06:58.710 --> 07:00.930 We see they're stuck in somewhat. 07:00.930 --> 07:06.990 In fact a couple of these are so let's just pull them out all the air that's going to take a bit of 07:06.990 --> 07:12.780 refining to get that source in maybe a smooth virtex on the on the rest of it. 07:12.780 --> 07:14.570 So let's move this in. 07:14.570 --> 07:16.990 And once more but not too much. 07:17.040 --> 07:19.450 Well I'm going to delete that face in the middle. 07:19.710 --> 07:24.540 I'm going to say it the edge loop running around the mouth and extrude it in words. 07:24.710 --> 07:26.460 I think that's the wise direction. 07:26.550 --> 07:27.400 Excellent. 07:27.630 --> 07:30.820 So there we go we've got to kind of lip building up there. 07:30.820 --> 07:32.870 It's a bit awkward round here. 07:32.940 --> 07:36.910 And again we can refine that to our heart's content. 07:40.300 --> 07:41.650 Make it look a bit better. 07:41.740 --> 07:46.310 Now we've started getting all of this and that's going to take a lot more refinement. 07:46.330 --> 07:54.550 I probably won't have time for in this particular video but we've got the eyes the eyes could be do 07:54.550 --> 08:03.560 with having some more detail around here and again we select for that and insects and insets again I'm 08:03.610 --> 08:10.080 going to delete that middle 5 select the edge loop and extrude backwards. 08:10.990 --> 08:14.070 Then of course I could scale that in or fill it in or whatever. 08:14.110 --> 08:15.280 We don't have eyes. 08:15.280 --> 08:16.840 Let's add some eyes. 08:16.840 --> 08:25.180 So in object mode all look this is something that I haven't done yet I haven't hopped back in to object 08:25.180 --> 08:28.030 mode and seen how that modifies being applied. 08:28.030 --> 08:33.320 But we need to do that in a moment when we start shaping things up something to add a yuryi Sphere. 08:33.370 --> 08:39.550 Looks groovy as that mirabeau and I'm going to rotate that round on the x axis by 19 that should put 08:39.550 --> 08:41.020 an eye facing forward. 08:41.140 --> 08:46.870 And then it's a matter going to hop into edit mode so I don't have to apply that scale and scale it 08:46.870 --> 08:48.610 down to roughly the right size. 08:48.610 --> 08:52.290 The fact that it bulges out of the head at the moment is not a problem. 08:52.480 --> 08:55.660 I will add a mirror modifier to it. 08:55.810 --> 09:02.980 I will make it to have a a white material for the moment I'm just going and leave it as pure white and 09:02.980 --> 09:03.620 diffuse. 09:03.640 --> 09:04.880 So just stands out. 09:04.880 --> 09:09.520 And we call that eye ball and we can work on the details of the eyeball later. 09:09.730 --> 09:12.640 It needs to be smooth. 09:12.640 --> 09:15.280 Eyes are not faceted like that. 09:15.280 --> 09:21.650 And finally there are two eyes So we've got a mirror and set the mirror object to the head. 09:21.810 --> 09:22.930 That should be fine. 09:22.930 --> 09:24.400 There we go. 09:24.520 --> 09:30.520 It looks a bit like a play model at the moment but trust me this is going to be refined and start looking 09:30.520 --> 09:32.760 really good soon. 09:32.770 --> 09:39.460 Speaking of refining one thing we can do here is start flipping around and modifying the mesh now and 09:39.460 --> 09:42.300 starting to make it look more like the rest of the model. 09:42.310 --> 09:46.780 So I've somehow lost my Mikey side profile. 09:46.960 --> 09:53.890 So if I go into the right folder into my assets reference material Myki side. 09:53.890 --> 10:01.080 Now when I go around to the side you can see the effects that the surface subsurface modifier is having 10:01.090 --> 10:02.970 and we can start modifying it. 10:03.100 --> 10:11.750 So as go into edit mode and this time turn on showing the modifier whilst were in edit mode. 10:12.040 --> 10:18.340 Now I can start going around and tweaking these vertices either with or without proportional editing 10:18.340 --> 10:20.920 turned and a start with it turned on. 10:20.920 --> 10:28.330 So when I move one vertex I can use the scroll wheel and move a whole reload of them at once to put 10:28.330 --> 10:31.500 the model in the right place and it will take a while. 10:31.520 --> 10:37.770 And obviously you can see here that's moving some of it is not going to work. 10:37.780 --> 10:44.150 I need to move a lot of it here in order to see there's move up. 10:45.060 --> 10:46.370 Has a funny smile. 10:46.540 --> 10:49.840 Okay let's move the mouth up to roughly the right place. 10:49.990 --> 10:53.240 We can go around and do this across the entire model. 10:53.250 --> 10:55.740 Cause sometimes you move too much. 10:55.780 --> 10:57.240 Zoom back in. 10:57.250 --> 10:59.700 Got to watch where the brow is here. 10:59.740 --> 11:01.840 Bridge of the nose etc.. 11:02.020 --> 11:08.290 And it's not just where that meshes its where the subsurface modifier puts the detail as well. 11:08.440 --> 11:12.450 So if I want to add the bridge of my nose it there's a little bit of a ball. 11:12.460 --> 11:14.920 This bit there so I can do that. 11:15.160 --> 11:23.050 I can see here that we've got this virtex Here is far too far in so I can go back round to the side. 11:23.050 --> 11:26.460 Now grab it and move it down to maybe fair. 11:26.470 --> 11:33.580 And again we're just watching this move around and my nose is probably far too wide as well so from 11:33.580 --> 11:35.760 the front view I can go in. 11:35.890 --> 11:41.480 I can see that wall actually from the front and side view. 11:41.500 --> 11:43.480 Yeah it looks pretty consistent. 11:43.480 --> 11:48.040 What about those nostril level how the nostrils are at different heights. 11:48.040 --> 11:53.620 If you notice so it looks like when I was hit and perhaps tilted my head up so I'm going to have to 11:53.620 --> 11:57.320 adjust for that as well as I go back. 11:57.370 --> 12:01.810 Let's just see how the models coming on now and zoom out and have a look around. 12:01.810 --> 12:05.080 Have we got all the face loops that we need. 12:05.080 --> 12:09.730 Again we can tweak all the details of the face to our heart's content. 12:09.740 --> 12:13.590 If the turn on the cage again so just looks a little bit better. 12:13.680 --> 12:16.050 It's got a couple of loops around. 12:16.330 --> 12:18.040 We've got this one going around there. 12:18.040 --> 12:20.510 We've got a wander around the bridge to the chin. 12:20.680 --> 12:26.050 Who got the ones around the mouth and that does need sorting anchors a very wide mouth at the moment 12:26.350 --> 12:29.940 and we've got the one running around the no so that's coming together nicely now. 12:29.950 --> 12:35.800 Don't expect your model to look overly good at this moment in time. 12:35.800 --> 12:38.600 There's a lot more refining that can be done. 12:38.920 --> 12:45.230 And there's a lot more work we can put in with the details around the mouth the eyes etc.. 12:45.430 --> 12:48.100 I'd love to see how you guys are getting on. 12:48.100 --> 12:53.620 There's a few final bits that I would want to do this summer are going to do it at the moment. 12:53.620 --> 12:59.130 That triangle stands out as the biggest one and she refined this area around the mouth here but of course 12:59.130 --> 13:02.190 assist me moving verses backwards and forwards. 13:02.200 --> 13:04.300 And how have you guys got on. 13:04.300 --> 13:07.010 Remember to share your work in the discussions. 13:07.010 --> 13:12.460 I love seeing what your coming out with this has been the most challenging challenge you've come across 13:12.460 --> 13:12.970 so far. 13:12.970 --> 13:14.930 I'm absolutely certain of that. 13:15.040 --> 13:21.610 Trying to route these face loops is not the easiest thing in the world to do but with persistence and 13:21.610 --> 13:24.750 some practice remember to do more than one head. 13:24.790 --> 13:27.350 I know I'm only doing one head here but the more. 13:27.370 --> 13:29.530 And don't worry initially with how it looks. 13:29.530 --> 13:32.860 Even if it looks like an alien great you've made an alien head. 13:32.880 --> 13:34.120 Man that's brilliant. 13:34.330 --> 13:38.110 Okay guys I will see you in the next lecture. 13:38.110 --> 13:40.690 Remember to show your work in the discussions. 13:40.690 --> 13:41.580 See you soon.
