Proportions of the male human body

by | May 30, 2021 | Fundamentals

The common mistake with the modeling of the human body is not following the anatomy proportions. The scheme shows the anatomy of the human male body. The measuring unit is the one head height. Usually, the average man’s tall the of 7 – 8 heads height. The...

Types of cylinder cap triangulation

by | May 29, 2021 | Fundamentals

The scheme shows four types of cylinder triangulation: The first example named “Star”. This is a standard triangulation method. All the edges connected to the central vertex. This approach allows conveniently selecting the edge loops and use a chamfer. The...

Creating cylinder cap central loops

by | May 29, 2021 | Topology

Why you should use an even quantity number of the edge in the cylinder cap? Here are some reasons: It will provide two crossed central loops in the cap middle; Even numbers are simple to remember and count; Easily to insert extra edges with saving the central loops;...
Redirection of the edge and polygon loops

Redirection of the edge and polygon loops

by | May 27, 2021 | Topology

The image shows the way of the loop redirection on the topology. The image shows three examples of the 5×5 topology areas: The first example shows the area with no directed loop; The second one shows a topology with a redirected polygon loop; The third scheme...
Human knee topology

Human knee topology

by | May 26, 2021 | Topology

To avoid extra stretching of the topology in the bending body parts you should start with the right topology. The topology scheme on the image allows saving the topology with no stretching as it is possible. It made from three parts: central loop, flat knee area which...
