WEBVTT 00:00.150 --> 00:05.130 In this lesson, we're going to continue to work on the eye socket and figure out how to connect it 00:05.130 --> 00:10.470 to the rest of the head, someone turn on the wireframe on shaded here with this little button so we 00:10.470 --> 00:14.160 can kind of see where the wireframe is when you're doing anything like this. 00:14.160 --> 00:15.800 We kind of just made this eye socket. 00:15.810 --> 00:18.200 How are we need to make it to follow the reference now? 00:18.220 --> 00:20.730 We need to resolve how it fits in with the rest of the model. 00:21.060 --> 00:24.480 So the first thing I do is just try to line up where edges should meet. 00:24.810 --> 00:27.270 So we have one edge here and two edges here. 00:27.270 --> 00:29.870 So we know we're going to add an edge loop here. 00:29.910 --> 00:34.170 So I'm going to go through the whole model and look at that kind of thing and add edge loops where I 00:34.170 --> 00:34.950 see that there need it. 00:35.310 --> 00:39.510 So with that in mind, I'm going to run through the model real quick and add edge loops. 00:39.510 --> 00:42.600 I'll go up to the edge loop tool and add it. 00:42.600 --> 00:49.020 And as soon as I add an edge loop, I also want to try to maintain the shape that I've started to create. 00:49.020 --> 00:49.830 So I need to pull it up. 00:49.830 --> 00:54.360 I can't just add an edge loop and expect it to, you know, maintain the type of shape I want it to 00:54.660 --> 00:58.880 because it'll just be a straight line going to go through here and kind of line up these edges. 00:58.890 --> 00:59.850 This one will go to that one. 01:00.180 --> 01:01.380 It looks like we need one in here. 01:01.380 --> 01:05.880 So I'll g and add one there and then pull this out just a touch. 01:06.330 --> 01:15.690 And so then we got these two and then we have maybe we need to hear it looks like and then that one 01:15.690 --> 01:16.260 we'll go to that one. 01:16.260 --> 01:17.180 That one to that one. 01:17.640 --> 01:24.600 And one thing I also want to note is you want to try to maintain the edge flow like we're talking about 01:24.600 --> 01:25.800 topology earlier. 01:26.220 --> 01:31.860 You know, see how far away this edge like there was this edge that's going in this direction. 01:31.860 --> 01:35.520 And then it takes like a 60 degree turn and then it starts going straight again. 01:35.820 --> 01:37.830 You don't want edges like this, right? 01:38.040 --> 01:41.820 You want them to line up with the edge flow. 01:41.820 --> 01:45.960 So they're all in a straight line for the most part until they're needed to be moved. 01:45.960 --> 01:50.340 But, you know, there's no reason for these to be out of whack like they are. 01:50.640 --> 01:57.480 So you need to kind of rein the topology and as you continue to tweak things and correct your model. 02:01.270 --> 02:09.280 So I'm going to pull this one over as well and think, well, eventually we'll have to resolve this 02:09.280 --> 02:11.890 issue over here on the nose, but I'm going to save that for another video. 02:12.280 --> 02:16.900 When we're working on the nose right now, let's just focus on the eye socket, try to get this stuff 02:16.900 --> 02:17.620 in line. 02:19.270 --> 02:26.810 OK, so now let's start at the top and what we can use is the appended polygon tool. 02:27.610 --> 02:33.190 So because this is too far a gap to try to merge these edges together, we need to create new geometry 02:33.190 --> 02:33.490 here. 02:33.770 --> 02:36.670 So let's put out the append a polygon tool right here. 02:37.240 --> 02:41.110 And I can just click here and click there and hit enter. 02:41.680 --> 02:47.560 And I'm not going to continue to go down the model in the same with the same tool because we need every 02:47.560 --> 02:49.510 time I hit enter, it makes those edge loops. 02:49.990 --> 02:52.270 So I want to make sure that it's making those. 02:52.270 --> 02:54.100 So I'm doing it face by face. 02:54.700 --> 02:56.250 So now what do we do? 02:56.290 --> 02:58.100 We were faced with a triangle here. 02:58.450 --> 03:02.520 So what I would suggest doing is we haven't we haven't flipped the model over yet. 03:02.530 --> 03:07.390 There's something over here I would suggest doing is just running this edge loop with the multicast 03:07.390 --> 03:13.060 tool clicking on the vertex here and just running it all the way through to the other side of the model. 03:13.660 --> 03:19.210 And now we have two triangles, one empty and one filled. 03:19.480 --> 03:24.160 So let's just take this face, make sure on the face mode, click it and hit delete. 03:24.520 --> 03:25.420 Now we have a quad. 03:25.690 --> 03:34.420 Now we can use the append polygon tool and make sure that we do not have a triangle in that area. 03:34.600 --> 03:43.450 And we're also not working with any Yangon's yet, which is good when it g and just keep going and I 03:43.450 --> 03:45.340 will speed up the video and I'll see one second. 03:48.250 --> 03:50.230 One thing I do want to note is, you know. 03:51.740 --> 03:57.080 You can't just take everything for granted, you have to be very precise with every vertex, so, you 03:57.080 --> 03:59.780 know, I got to make room for this new edge flow, so I got to move. 03:59.780 --> 04:05.060 The vertices don't just allow the model to kind of be whatever it is. 04:05.060 --> 04:11.300 You have to touch every single vertices and make sure it's precisely where you want it to be at all 04:11.300 --> 04:11.890 times. 04:11.900 --> 04:13.250 So keep that in mind. 04:20.290 --> 04:23.380 All right, now we have the eye socket attached to the rest of that. 04:23.820 --> 04:29.590 I'm going to increase the transparency here or I guess decrease it really slide over to the very end. 04:29.920 --> 04:31.350 You can see we have all this history now. 04:31.400 --> 04:33.340 It takes a long time to get to the Shater. 04:33.820 --> 04:38.110 So one thing I can do to help clean up the model so it doesn't you know, I'm clicking and holding this 04:38.110 --> 04:40.600 and we're seeing the the tab just scroll by. 04:41.710 --> 04:46.570 I'm going to go ahead and delete the history on this so that you'll watch the tabs over here. 04:46.600 --> 04:51.370 Now, it's much cleaner now and it's straight to the shader so that we can adjust this transparency 04:51.370 --> 04:57.490 and see it in a more shaded mode and turn off the wireframe on shaded option here. 04:59.020 --> 05:03.910 And these edges are very hard for the mesh display just because we created them by themselves. 05:03.910 --> 05:10.480 So the normals are kind of a little wonky, but we can kind of start to get a sense of the shape of 05:10.480 --> 05:10.960 the thing. 05:11.480 --> 05:18.580 And as we've, you know, continue to refine the model, we need to try to keep it on and, you know, 05:18.580 --> 05:19.960 on model where we want it to be. 05:19.970 --> 05:26.080 So I'm just going to take a second to hold down shift and kind of smooth this area out. 05:27.280 --> 05:29.920 And I'm also going to use the pool. 05:30.190 --> 05:33.220 I don't think we've used this one yet, but the poor one is very useful. 05:34.150 --> 05:35.170 They call it the grab tool. 05:35.530 --> 05:38.440 So you can just click and kind of drag stuff around. 05:38.980 --> 05:44.710 And this one is very, very useful to just kind of get stuff in the right spot. 05:45.100 --> 05:50.740 And it looks like, as I do, that we undo that super quick. 05:50.740 --> 05:53.470 It looks like we the model got moved at some point. 05:54.040 --> 05:55.660 So I'm just going to drag this back down. 05:55.690 --> 05:57.580 Let me look at the outliner or the. 05:58.210 --> 05:59.070 You can do that. 05:59.440 --> 06:00.010 Yeah, it's weird. 06:00.010 --> 06:05.230 I don't know how that I know how that happened while it's recorded. 06:05.230 --> 06:07.570 So I'm sure we could do some detective work. 06:07.570 --> 06:11.290 But, um, you know, you just kind of. 06:11.800 --> 06:16.150 Yeah, it looks like it got a little out of whack maybe when I was moving around at some point. 06:16.300 --> 06:20.320 Sometimes that happens when you're navigating, you can accidentally move something if you have to move 06:20.320 --> 06:20.890 to selected. 06:20.890 --> 06:23.860 So it's usually better to navigate around with a select tool. 06:23.860 --> 06:28.690 So you're not actually moving things while you're navigating in the viewport. 06:29.260 --> 06:36.010 So I'm gonna go back to the grab tool, grab this stuff to try to match the silhouette of the drawing 06:36.010 --> 06:39.850 again and smooth stuff as well. 06:39.850 --> 06:42.850 Even though we're on the grab tool, you can still smooth things. 06:43.150 --> 06:47.740 That kind of modifier key works with multiple tools. 06:47.740 --> 06:54.460 So I'm just kind of smoothing things and grabbing them and back out, smooth this kind of hard edge 06:54.460 --> 07:02.440 there and kind of refine the shape of this eye socket to make sure it's kind of a teardrop shape. 07:05.010 --> 07:13.110 Because there's some straight edges here that I think could be slightly curved and brought in that I'm 07:13.110 --> 07:22.530 trying to get to the inners along with it, so I just have to kind of move around and we might need 07:22.530 --> 07:24.090 another edge loop in here. 07:24.760 --> 07:25.290 Um. 07:26.400 --> 07:31.020 I'm going to go ahead and do that, because this is a quite you know, if you look at the distance between 07:31.020 --> 07:33.930 these edges, that's quite a long way. 07:33.930 --> 07:37.290 And this is actually a good moment to talk about the slide tool. 07:37.560 --> 07:41.910 So, like, if I like the shape of this thing, but I want to drag this edge down and see how it's changing 07:41.910 --> 07:46.560 the shape of everything, I can actually use the slide tool and there's a couple different ways you 07:46.560 --> 07:47.130 can get to it. 07:47.970 --> 07:52.410 I like to just use the modeling tool set up here by clicking this little button and we can go to the 07:52.410 --> 07:55.170 transform, constrain and look at our options. 07:55.170 --> 07:58.680 We have the edge slide, so we click that. 07:59.040 --> 08:00.450 You can see it's a slide now. 08:00.450 --> 08:06.210 And also when we move it, it's kind of maintaining that shape so we can just slide edges around if 08:06.210 --> 08:07.930 we need to, to kind of make room for other edges. 08:07.950 --> 08:11.670 I'm going to slide this one down, just a touch and turn this off. 08:11.670 --> 08:19.680 So we're not having to deal with that later and bring in a new angle up here with the insert tool. 08:21.660 --> 08:28.350 And that way, when I use the sculpting grab tool, I'll actually have something to move, sort to move 08:28.350 --> 08:29.310 that in slightly. 08:30.930 --> 08:32.550 And I think my brush is too big. 08:32.550 --> 08:37.980 So this whole downby and middle mouse drag in the viewport just kind of push that around. 08:40.660 --> 08:46.210 And he had smooth just a touch hair, um, holding down shift. 08:48.470 --> 08:54.950 And yeah, looking a little bit better, we can continue to refine this later on, smooth out kind of 08:54.950 --> 08:57.560 hard edges here, so it has a nice shape to it. 08:57.920 --> 09:03.290 And I'll see the next lesson where we will approach how to deal with the nose area here. 09:03.560 --> 09:08.750 If we look at the reference, there's an inset there, so we need to deal with the nose in the next 09:08.750 --> 09:09.110 lesson. 09:09.140 --> 09:09.830 Thanks for watching.
