Member Johngvc Posted October 10, 2017 Member Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 Hi guys ! I'm trying to model a APC from Half Life and stumbled across a very annoying problem. I need to make Metal plates flat but also bent on certain spots to accomodate the Metal frame of the APC. I've been doing it with a Free Form patch then cutting off my desired areas and then using the pose tool (Very finnicky sometimes) to "bend" the metal plate the way I need. Here is one example of the kind of stuff I'm talking about. The question is, Is there a way to make the Free Form Patch hard edged? The points make hard edges instead of smooth curves? That would save me Thanks in advance for your attention and any kind of help, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted October 10, 2017 Report Share Posted October 10, 2017 * The points only make smooth curves. Why not to use retopo room for that task ? Make a rough sketch, switch to retopo room. Make a new mesh adding faces. Then use the command Retopo mesh > Sculpt mesh. I think it can give you better results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
