Description
I have noticed how almost everyone that has Did a 3D model, is also able to Draw. Hence my problem... as you can see I CANT DRAW!... Looking at Teyon's work, I see that he has skecthed out what he wants to do First, then models it. me, If I was to skecth some thing out, it would look like the pic above, and it is not what I call attrective :) So what is the point of this?/... I CANT DRAW! so in return My models never get finished :) I want to know if there is anyone else out there who is modeling, but can't draw? Thats if your brave enough to come forward :) I hope I havent wasted your time lol which I think I did, but It is something I was thinking about, and just thought I would post it... thanks for reading.. Laterz

You aren't alone. I can draw I'm too inexperienced to make it in 3D. My problem is also that when I design something in 3D I have no set plan. I just make something and see what appears six hours later :) Not sure if that's good or not yet grin

How about making a model of that image above. Maybe call it "Picasso" 3D Modeling Technique, Not going for realism but for style? :> Be the leader in a new generation/style of 3D modelers?!! Just A Thought.....

Hey, I usually do a sketch of what I want to model. I can draw but I don't think it's absolutely necessary. It can definately be helpful if you want to do something like character modeling but for anything else, naaaa. One of my favorite artists that posts here once told me when I was first starting that all complex models are basically just a collection of primitives. When I approached it that way, everything fell into place for me. Good luck and don't ever give up. :)

I feel your pain, as I can't draw either. But any small skill I may have in modeling came from practice and observation of others' work. Try a little exercise-find something intersting on the Web with a good picture/several different views and try to model it. If you keep doing that, you're going to get better, trust me.

try modelling simple objects first, like a mug, glass, camera, then maybe try a mobile phone slowly building up to complex models. dont worry about texturing objects for now, and don't forget to post them in the forums (not matter how bad you think it is) you will get friendly advice and learn a lot more than a manual can ever show you. so what you waiting for get stuck in. :o)
