Introduction To 3d Modelling in Plasticity

Master overall shape design for a complex communication device by shaping big, medium, and small details, using curves, bevels, booleans, mirrors, and construction planes to craft a cohesive 3d model.

Refine the blockout by shaping geometry with bevels and chamfers, cutting with the line tool, mirroring, and using imprint and offset techniques to prepare for high-poly detail.

Add details to the object while cleaning up geometry and removing redundant topology, bevel and chamfer edges, create cylindrical holes, imprint panel lines, and add asymmetrical details with pipe tool.

Refine pipe geometry by creating borders, applying bevels and chamfers, performing booleans and offsets, and integrating panels and pipe details for a polished 3d modelling workflow.

Create pipes from surfaces using the bridge curve tool to control curvature during blockout; place mechanical pieces and volume knobs. Use untrim, extrude, and booleans to refine geometry for detailing.

Start with a strong blockout, then add detailing with extrudes, chamfers, pipes, panels, and offsets. Use booleans and project curves to build high-poly, but avoid over detailing.

Refine a metallic screen by rescaling, borrowing geometry, offsetting, and extruding multiple sheets; apply fillets and chamfers, imprint curves, and curve arrays to create a symmetrical, detailed model.

Explore iterative 3d modelling of a led screen, starting from a strong blockout and evolving with additive and subtractive details, including bolts, panels, and curved contour cuts.

Apply advanced detailing techniques to finish a LED screen prop by adding bevels, chamfers, extrusions, booleans, and textures, while refining geometry with offsets, mirroring, imprint, and pipe features.

Learn to model a knurled cylindrical component and its holder, using extrudes, bevels, chamfers, booleans, and a center radial sweep with mirroring for detail.

Design a side panel and buttons with bevels, booleans, and pipes, using extrude, chamfer, and kitbashing to create detailed, reusable geometry.

Refine pipe geometry in Plasticity by trimming sharp edges, lofting and patching for smooth radius transitions, mirroring for symmetry, and exporting to obj with quad/triangle topology controls.

Master surface modeling to form freeform shapes with sheets and curves, learn to loft and extrude while ensuring seamless connections through G0–G3 continuity and tangency.

Master lofting and tangency to create smooth, organic surfaces in plasticity. Learn to use line, spline, and control point curves for flawless tangent transitions.

Explore how G0 through G3 continuity governs the smoothness of connections between curves and surfaces, using lofting, tension, and control points to create complex shapes.

Apply tangency and continuity principles to craft flawless 3d surfaces using control point curves, guides, and lofts, while mirroring and refining geometry for seamless, natural shapes in plasticity modeling.

Learn a surface modeling workflow to shape a headphone headband, starting from large half-circle forms, applying taper, curves, bridges, and guided lofts for a smooth, connected profile.

build a base headband, add details with segments and curves, ensure tangency and proper topology, use loft and sweep techniques, mirror and patch gaps for a solid, detailed model.

Create the earphone main shape by lofting between curves and sheets, then refine with bevels, fillets, patches, and offsets to form a smooth cushion and detailed connector.

Finish headphone details by offsetting faces, adjusting pivots, and varying scales; loft between curves with guiding lines and patches, then apply bevels and fillets for realism.

Apply surface modeling to create curved hair dryer shapes and join them into a seamless 3d form, using revolve and loft with guiding circles for smooth transitions.

Master patching connections between symmetrical parts by creating guiding lines and using G2 or G1 with loft and patch for a smooth, curvature-based transition.

Trace a shaver silhouette from an orthographic image, create and refine curves with control point and spline tools, loft and patch surfaces.

Improve a shaver model by refining topology with patching and guiding lines, enforcing G1/G2 tangents, lofts, and bridges, and adding subtle chamfers and fillets for a smoother inset transition.

Finish a shaver model by using lofts, patches, and joins to create a solid, optimize topology with cuts, fillets, and chamfers, and connect surfaces for a precise, complex geometry.
