Re: Blender Lego

Looks pretty good so far, Robert! The head looks a bit pixel-y, however. Not sure what it is, but I'm sure the other Blender fanatics around here can. mini/smile

Re: Blender Lego

An, yes. You will want to set smooth the head, then hit auto smooth.

It looks pretty good so far, but the head looks a bit too roundish. You could use cylinders for the main head part and the stud, because they are never rounded in real life.

Re: Blender Lego

Try subsurfing it a little.

Re: Blender Lego

Thanks for all the feedback, was beginning to think I wouldn't get any.... mini/smile

I used the spin technique for the head, then smoothed it and added a subsurf.
Then I used creases for the bottom and part of the top.
Kinda figured I'd have to fix the stud, it was too round, like y'all pointed out. mini/smile

Will try to add more to this later....
