[Hexagon] How to model bottle thread in Hex - Polyloop

rickei · 23rd July 2010, 21:46

this question was asked... here is my answer.

I know its a dumb looking bottle, and i probably should have looked at one for reference, but it shows the basic of how to make a spiral(threaded) object end up with a flat top and bottom using only quads.

not sure where you are, but your IP is blocked. so you will not be able to see it.
that's just the way it is.

Ok, but i don't know wy.....

same for me.

OK
can you just delete this thread Thomas?

i just realized that i used the same method that Maxime used in the water mineral bottle video, so it's just a duplicate of the same process anyway

this video is on my personal server, and i have several hundred IP's blocked, mostly ip's from the RIPE networks in the east and in areas of the UK.
If you are not in the U.S. you will not be able to see them...sorry about that
