Pay special attention to the loop count of the wrist 16 is generally plenty and will be at least close to the loop count of whatever arm you attach. Sticking to multiple of 4 for loops is also general good practice. Each finger should have the same number of loops. Remember to check your edge count in loops. You can automate this using something like Retopoflow. Once you’ve marked your main loops build them out using geometry. Marking these will help you avoid redoing work correcting edge loops that flow in the wrong ways. For example, the wrist, fingers, knuckles, and thumb pad. Mark out anywhere that should have clean loops of edges. A great way to do this is by using the grease pencil tool over your reference image. This is why it’s a safe bet to start identifying these before you build out much of the model. The human hand has a lot of primary loop locations.
TLDR: Check your reference…and then check it again.
Base meshes are all about recognizing the major forms of a model, that means paying attention to muscle and bone structure is just as important at this step as it is for sculpting or texturing.įor example, while working on this post, I initially modeled the back of the hand with inset loops near the knuckles, but after looking at my own hand, I realized that it would be more accurate to have the loops extend downwards across the hand because the whole area deforms in certain positions. Even when working with base meshes, reference is a necessity. It’s easy to take as granted that we know what a human hand looks like, but once you begin modeling, it’s easy to assume forms and end up in the uncanny valley. Organic forms, especially those we’re most familiar with, require acute attention to reference. Once you reach the bottom, you can also download the final hand with loop flow notes using the Sketchfab link. So without further ranting, here’s a couple tips for modeling your next hand. Furthermore, animated ready hands must be ready to deform in almost any shape while still looking good.
An arm is one thing, but another five appendages? Topology and mesh density can quickly get out of hand (pun intended). Hands are one of the most complex shapes on the human body to model. Today we’re going to take a look at a very common modeling task modeling hands. #3d modeling #organic #topology #3d #blender #b3d #hand
