A Ma Zing. Mary poppins would be proud mate.
-
@Mike-Amos Thanks Mike. I don’t get the Mary Poppins reference at all. Oh well…….
-
Mary Poppins the film 1964. "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious", something wonderful, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
-
@Mike-Amos I remember when the film came out but honestly can’t recall ever seeing it. I was was in grade school back then
-
Over here in the Almost UK, the tv channels chuck it out at most of the holidays so if anyone has missed it, they were in a weird place. Sorry mate it's something that makes me chuckle a bit.
The title character was extremely positive which is something I think we are all in need of. -
Dug into another old practice model. Minimal number of parts. Additional skills garnered from Box’s gif’s.
-
Very sharp, completely lost me there but, it's thursday so.........
-
@Mike-Amos Assuming the minimal parts sounds confusing? Basically only four components in each basket. The top ring, the twisted vertical bar and a two piece base.
-
@ntxdave Thank you sir. I’d suggest starting with simple shapes and practice the various techniques. In particular copy/array around a circle. As you get comfortable slowly add to the complexity.
-
@tuna1957 I have been trying that but so far am not doing very well (making me feel pretty dumb). 🤪
On thing I do have a little problem with in the videos is that he obviously enters info in the text boxes that you cannot see in the video. I will continue watching and figure things out. Maybe this is what happens as we age and are away for a while.
-
@ntxdave Don’t feel dumb. At least you’re trying. That’s more than a lot of people. A shame you don’t live down the street. You could drop over and see in real time how I struggle with this stuff.

@Box said in I’ve Been “Boxed”:
Then Dave or Rich will split the relevant post out of this one and into the new one.
let me know by tagging me in that new thread and I'll move this sidebar.
loving these shares!

Another odd object. Experimented with a bunch of different effects for the material on the globe when rendering.
-
I thought I saw a video somewhere using the quad face tool plugin to draw something like a fancy btacelet but I cannot fing it anymore. Does anyone know where I can find it?
. -
Another odd little thing. Pulled some parts from an early practice model and ended up with this…
-
Dug up an old file. I’d been practicing twisting stuff. Copied out one of the rings and here’s the result. Playing around with this stuff is fun.
Including a pic of the proxy.
-
I would like to learn more about how to do stuff like this. Here is my most recent trial/practice.
I did not use anything like FredoScale. Can you share with me how to use a tool like that to twist something? Also, did you do this with SU 2025? If so, how do you get a glass/glossy look to the interior part of you model?
-
@ntxdave I use SU Pro15 and 18. The finished image was rendered in Twilight. The glass has a “Flint Glass” template applied in Twilight. To my understanding even with the added PBR materials in SU25 if you want true realism your going to have to use a render software.

Very bloudy sharp, Sir. Inspirational.

@Mike-Amos Thank you Mr. Mike
