    AAA content. Focused, committed, beautiful. The way you handled the arraying of your [Curvature + Shrinkwrap target] made me wonder whether you had explored the use of Collection Instances, and rejected those, for some reason. At first sight, there seems to be a lot of opportunity to use those to organize elements of your project... but maybe they would just be confusing.

Everytime I try to extend it the insertion and extrusion in the column disappears and I am left with a smooth looking column. Does anyone know how to fix it? 😭

My first issue is mirroring, when I do the first mirror in the x and y, I get a full circle. Using Blender 3.4 and 2.9.3 same result. No good at using a mirror and I didn't see any other special keys you used to get your mirror perspective. Will continue on and maybe it will sort itself out. Thanks again.

    Hey, thank you for this amazing tutorial. Been working with blender for quite a while and still learned some amazing things. To be fair, modeling is not my strongsuit. I have a question i think somebody already asked but i still have trouble. At 0:59 you extrude the edges until they clip. It seems like they snap on to each other. Whenever i try it it doesn't snap and i have to do it by eye which i think creates an unwanted face in the middle of the bridge. Edit: Just tested it, i don't think the edges overlapping is the problem. For whatever reason there is a face appearing in the middle of the bridge that fucks up the whole mesh if i delete it. Thanks in advance and again, thanks for the great tutorial!

    I've only faced one issue and it's apparently my subdivision that's revealing the curves' edges in the middle and at the corners, pretty much everywhere the vertices meet at 12:41. So far I believe I've followed everything precicesly the same but for some reason my subdevisions are giving me issues when I use the shrinkwrap. Your curve at 12:43 is so beautifully smooth where mine is revealing strangely revealed edges and corners.

    It's similar to the method he uses to put decorations around the arch. Create a piece of the tread and apply a curve modifier with the curve running around the circumference of the tyre. Adjust the number and edit the size of the tread until it matches up properly. You want to make sure it's set to allow the tread to bend as it goes round, unless you are making caterpillar treads for a tank or construction/heavy industry vehicles.

    First of all, thank you very much for your work! It's exactly what I need! But of course there are still questions :D I'm probably just overlook something. I followed the steps until 12:40 and now I realise: Your holes for the rosettes are square, mine are not. Of course I could make the arch narrower now, but somehow I have the feeling that you managed to do that without paying explicit attention to it. Am I mistaken?

  • @hbitproject

I have now looked through my old save files (someone very clever recommended that I use several files for such tutorial videos) and rebuilt the beginning. I think it's really only because at 1:08 you chose the width of your arc so that the faces are square. I made my arc wider and the holes are now rectangular. I can still change that.
