Step 5. Hand |
I made a side view of the finger with splines (top view also)
I made some boxes to help the extrusion process. Black boxes shows points
where the finger bends. Whites are for nail (yes we're going to do a finger nail
also)
Pictures bellow shows how I extruded the finger.
Next step is to move vertices so they match with the profiles. Note that I added more segments on tip of the finger to make it more smooth.
Now comes the "hardest" part extruding a finger nail
Select the faces and press ONLY once the extrusion arrow.
Now select those extured vertices and scale them inside the finger as bellow
picture shows.
Red line shows what where scaled
You need 3 segments to make this nail.
Seg 1. You did this minute ago.
Seg 2. These vertices you pull IN the finger, so you get a finger nail "socket"
Seg 3. This is the nail it self. You pull vertices OUT of that "socket"
FINISHED FINGER (MeshSmooth)
Well it's not perfect. When your character is ready (and meshsmooth applied)
you can select fingers vertices and apply FFD modifier
to edit fingers.
Finger nail is little too big, but that's very easy to correct.
Now we have one finger. All we need is a thumb.
As you can see I made a copy and deleted half of a finger and scaled it bigger (looks almost a thumb)
Step 6. Connecting Fingers To A Palm |
Start by makeing 3 copies of your fingers
Place them as you can see on above picture.
Next make a box (width 4, lenght 4, height 1)
Now move vertices so it look something like pictures bellow
Here I've
placed a thumb in it's place. I just rotated it and moved vertices so they can
be welded with palm vertices.
Now it's time to connect those fingers to a palm
If you're getting following results when you apply Meshsmooth
You have made one mistake (yes you welded those vertices together), but did you deleted the faces?
Here all
"connection faces" are deleted.
Now you just attach them together and weld those vertices (white
dots)
Ending result
Fingers are way too long. Meshsmooth also makes finger nail area
look like a box (can't figure out why)
