Modeling A Stratocasyte Guitar
 

I'm going to model a Stratocastre guitar with refering a tutorial video.
First of all I made a outline of guitar and extrude it.
Next I cut top and bottom polygons and subpatch the side surface. And next I paste the top and bottom polygons but they don't fix closely becouse top and bottom plygons are not subpatched surfaces.
I watch the video tutorial several times but I can't understand it.
Please tell me how to model a Strtocaster guitar!

(Sorry that I am not good at English.)

Hey Osamu,

1. Change your selection mode to Polygons ( hotkey is CNTRL+H)
2. Access the Statistics panel ( hotkey is 'w' ), click on Faces
3. With the Faces selected, hit tab to subpatch them

Hi Erwin
Thanks for your reply.
But I want to know how to handle the top and bottom surfaces. Thay are not surfaces with three or four vertices. So i can't subpatch them.
In the tutorial video there is nothing about that.

Can you post a screenshot? I don't have the Strat tutorial, so I'm not sure what you are trying to do. If you post a screenshot, we can see what's wrong.

Hi Erwin
I got a screenshot, after subpatch surfaces.
I want to know how to fit side subpatched surfaces and top surface.

I'll apreciate your patience.

You need to delete those polys and then manually build polys, by selecting 4 points and hitting p, and this is in the strat tut. probably just the next movie.

There u have it... Kenny 'The Fish' (or 'Cheechio') saves the day.

Thanks Erwin.
The problem was rsolved.
I divided side surface into many tiny polygons so i can do fit top and side surfaces.

Thanks agai.

Thanks again.

LMAO erwin you are purely evil :)

That's his mobster name... He calls himself 'The Fish' , but I prefer to call him 'Cheechio.' Cheechio sounds cooler.

Thats it here come the cement shoes, my friend. Call me what you want, just dont call me late for mi mama's pasta and da meatballs on Sundays ehhh.
