The BIG ONE Part 2

With that out of the way, here are some before-creation sketches.




does not look much huh, but i guess thats the best i can do in art at the time. Okay, lets start the creation process. First up was the base and the main walls.


First sign of trouble is when you mess up at the beginning which was what I did. God forbid but I forgot how to fully use extrusion and thus started trying to make a frame for the walls when i could just extrude a cube to form a box as above. It took me an hour to realize that and I deleted my tediously made box in favor of the new method. I dont have the pictures though for this one as i was moping over my stupidity. I resolved to always remember any and every method after that. Next up were the roof.


Trust me you dont want to get me started on the roof. Extrusions face by face after much consideration for the number of inner loops I had to put on my object left me simply aching and sore. But even then it was still manageable as compared to the next few parts of the dollhouse.



Meet the killer of my object. This simple looking window really made me feel that i was ready to throw in the towel, kill myself or crush the com and/or do the above all together. This was the reason.





"I could not do the window panes but this was the solution I had found with loads of help from my teacher." was what you were looking at. My teacher solved the issue by asking me to use polygon panes as the window panes and i followed. However, with that method came another issue. I for some strange reason, could not place the panes properly on to the window. This was due to there being extra polygons in the object itself. as seen in the above pictures and how I was taught a simple solution instead of painstakingly trying to merge EVERY SINGLE VERTICES. It was no joke you know, There were round 300 of them?  I dont know. All I knew was that my eyes were going to suffer from all that straining. However, after that was the end of my major problems. Here is the second window made with ease.


The door as well (oh i am particularly proud of the door knob)


The megazoid of sorts (the first combine/ putting them together)


The lower half combi


and here is the finished product (oh i need to add textures so dont go away)
