Salutations!
I keep on trying to make faces out of both sides of my model and nothing happens. I have this gap between both of the sides of my gun and I don't know how to fix it!
BobCat,
Have you succeeded in creating 2 sides of the model or you have only the points, vertexes, so far?
Either way...
a- Create, as said in the tut, the points for side 1 of the top grip;
b- Select 3 or 4 of these points and press
F6 to create one face/polygon;
c- Repeat step
b until you have all the faces needed to make side 1 of the M16 top-grip;
It's a good thing to proceed in one direction creating faces, in a way that you connect the to-be-used points to the previously created face. This will maintain the same normal orientation and will aid to ‘remember' to create all the faces.
Now that you have one side of the top grip, even a paper thin side, you need to make the other one… I assume you're curious enough and are checking your work in buldozer sporadically…
d- in side view,
select all;
e-
lock x axis and
SHIFT+RMB drag the selection to the side (copy points);
f- press
W to invert the normals orientation for the selection;
note that the normals from one side must point away from the other.See the difference from tut?
But, if this was where you were…
g- in front view, select two consecutive points on the edge;
the info line bellow the screen will read 4 selected points because, as planned, we're selecting two points in the opposite side as well.
h- press
F6 to create a face using these 4 points;
i- repeat steps
g and
h until you create all the faces to unite the two sides ("close it")
Remember that we'll see faces that have normals pointing towards the camera…
Good luck
