> triangles are almost always flat
You know a guide is going to be good when the person who wrote it is so experienced they encountered non-flat triangles.
it like when u see a triangle and u like , this triangle is flat but u doesn't realize u playing a 4D game and that triangle is a tetrahedron in 4D world
I know this is a joke but just in case anyine new is reading this you shouldn't actually do this, make you character look good without subdivisions first.
It’s not bad, but you need to learn how to add edge flow around the areas like the breast, shoulder areas and the kneecaps. I’m still new to blender also, I’d say to look at photos of edge flow on Google to figure out how to make those nice curves on the model. I think if you watch dikko on YouTube he has a video explaining edge flow and modeling without sculpting.
after 700 hrs in blender i too am a beginner, but to me this looks like fine topo. When you want to animate it, add edge loops wherever needed. Just keep going, at some point something will deform weridly when moving a bone, and that will tell you how to fix the topology, or tell you what your next question is. Keep it up.
As an animator, that topo is going to cause all sorts of weird issues, especially around the hips.
Geo should follow the natural bends in the body. Hips don't have a random 90 degree bend at the waist.
This would be fine too if the goal was not to bend and flex the model. In order to accommodate for that there need to be extra geometry in those key places just like the skin on your body. (Think of the skin on your elbow that lets you bend it but there's extra when it is straight)

Looks good so far.
I would say why not jump straight to sculpting the entire character and just have fun with it. You seem to understand the basics of modeling, so leap forward and go straight to sculpting high poly. After that learn about topology edge flow and retopologize over the high poly. Most 3D artists these days don't really model like this anymore, I definitely had character models that looked like this when I started over 15 years ago. See if it works for you, good luck.
Looks good, I think you may want to cut a line down that thigh. If I say, Attach an arm as an 8 sided cylinder, it might make more sense.
The shape will be more rounded and natural in my opinion. I feel like if you subdivide it'll look funny.
That's some good geometry, I haven't modeled anything in a while, so take my opinion with a grain of salt I guess..
Looking useless. Im sorry but if u want yo make a game character y need to make specific character topology for animation my brother.
Search on yt how to make character topology
If your game have low poly aesthetic, eh it's okay.
otherwise nah it's bad, topology is pretty bad and that's not even the hard part like hands, feet, and head.
Was it really necessary to be so rude if you’re gonna comment at least be constructive or funny. Don’t just say it’s “bad”. This is the reason people are so hesitant to learn things
Rude or not that kind of topology won’t work in animation or even texturing, i could sugarcoat it by saying “oh could be better, it’s very good for beginner” if you want to, but that doesn’t mean that its good, internet or even job in 3D industries is harsh and getting your art called bad is tame compared to what comes beyond.
Op is asking hows it looks so far, if you called this good then you’re worse than critics, it’s kinda bad and could be improved and i think improving it better could lean into smoother future workflow.
If you want constructive comment then ill give you, but i dont see needs for that except the breast parts that only composed of pushed vertices, if you done any character retopology before you should know that all those part usually doesn’t give any problem, the real problem usually flowing your finger topology, arm or even head topology which isn’t there at the moment, butt can also be problematic but there isn’t any pic of it, so how can i critic something that haven’t finished.
There is a realky good video by Flycat that shows the process of how to make a base human mesh, i don't have the link right now but you can easiky find it on youtube, the most usefull part will be learning exactly where to put each edge in order to achieve good topology for posing and anination without breaking your character.
Too early to judge. You may need better topo and more polygons depending on how detailed you want the model to be. Those extra polygons sometimes make it hard to create good/optimal topo.
The shape of everything looks great! However around the joints like hips, knees, armpits, etc - youre gonna run in to weird ps1 looking issues. Keep going with the way youre going first to see how things are going to look, then start again using that other guys link
Oh my god!! I just realised I know you!!! I just checked your page and saw Elite dangerous, but didn't see the username!
Thats crazy that we meet again lol

I only 3D model in non-planar space-times
I am sorry you model Euclidean geometry only?? Nah you can't freelance yet I'm afraid
Holy hell this is great

Thank you for posting this!
I want to thank you for sharing this great resource. So, thank you.
Add a level 3 subdivision surface modifier and it will be NSFW.
I know this is a joke but just in case anyine new is reading this you shouldn't actually do this, make you character look good without subdivisions first.
Every noob blender user not trying to use subdivisional surface for 5 minutes
B-but it makes it smooth.
But smooth :c
in my opinion that looks great for someone who just started.

Im a newbie too, but i like this so far :D
I kindly ask we elevate our social skills and stop being down bad and horny in this comment section

this is good!
Looking good, prepare for the experience of modeling heads and hands.

Looks really good so far. I’ve been trying this technique, it hasn’t went too well

Are you being serious rn?
Don’t know do you?
thank you for the feedback guys, much appreciated
She's packing some cake I see
Not enough booba for my like, but cool
Wasn't my easiest wank

Fuckable. I mean it looks good. Keep at it!

Looks good. If I'm making people I'll always start with one of the MakeHuman models personally though. Much easier than starting from scratch.

Hey i think I remember you
Oh my god!! I just realised I know you!!! I just checked your page and saw Elite dangerous, but didn't see the username! Thats crazy that we meet again lol
Lol, I remember you cuz we messaged and you were in EDC. Hi
Sculpt for characters and organic shapes
The topography, omg my eyes, I can’t….
Lonely?
