Make a corinthian column?

:yeow: Cones... I have totally forgotten their existence
Yeah, I learnt the other day to bend thanks to the first video  He is a great teacher, 'cause it's him who has videos for "the dock".

I want to watch his other videos :)

Don't hesitate, we have 13 links of his videos in Urban modelization

Bend things is good for me. But bridge between 2 bended things is not really good.
I don't talk to do "leaves" for the Corinthian capital I tried again this morning, diverting the tuto for the gun to create a "shape" of leaf; it was horrible, and impossible to add 2 on the bended part with success, because they were one in the other in a way.

So I believe I'll try only to add a texture for this time. Alas flat columns on teh top, but it's the better thing to do.
Maybe a play with bump or displacement black/grey/white could help on this. I'll see.

  again for your help!

Not sure I understand, maybe if you post a screenshot. IDid you try the put on command? Always many ways to things but only some work :)

Sorry for the later answer. When I posted my previous message, I had already removed my W3D saved files.
I have always not the "click" to do the sculpture correctly. I have things around columns, and for the moment I try to find brushes approchaing for them. But alone I found are in .ai and I haven't Illustrator So I must take shapes of ornaments, then created by myself the brushes.
On a good note, I found also brushes in relations with corinthian capitales. Maybe I can improve my first texture for this one.

Finally I was back to follow the "gun tutorial" for another shape, less complicated.
I'm not sure I'll be able to do a corinthian capital, but I'll have maybe a better approach.
Specially like I have understood I missed the orthogonal view previously

Also she is in tweak mode, not sure the tut was clear about that. Good luck  :lite2:

And no minions to eat it? lol

I'm pretty sure this time I'll be able to do the shape around. It's inside that is a big "?".

I'm not in Tweak mode no, but I saw she has a different way to move points compared to me indeed.
I prefer for the moment the move X, move Y like I do, even if it takes more time. I'm forced to keep my concentration.

[mtdana]

A banana, at least you could identify it! Normally what I make can't be lol


Aelin, Tweak will let you move a group of point at the same time and it is similar to sculpt mode which you have used, so I don't think it would take long for you to lean it.

[Aelin]

Even without Tweak it's possible to move several points. Either when you cut a line in several parts, you keep points in red and you make the job. Or selecting those which interest you.
Maybe less intuitive, but concentration always  lol

I'm in the phase of create lines inside.

But I must admit I have some edges which are there but not always possible to see Sometimes when I move a little a point it's ok to show again an edge, but the neighbor edge can do the same trick suddenly
