Great video, there is another option too you might find useful. If you use the search option to search non manifold, this can also select interior faces but also has other options like selecting boundaries or single vertexes etc all within the one operation. It can be extremely useful for clean up work for all kinds of situation. It was originally added for those creating 3D printable object to quickly check and clean up their meshes. Hope this is useful 🙂

That actually wouldn't take much time to do without that tool. Obviously using the tool is the fastest way of doing it, but you could very easily isolate the interior geometry by holding alt and selecting all four lines of side faces. Hide them with H. Switch to wireframe in front or side ortho, and then box select the interior faces and delete them. There may be some edge case where doing things this way would actually be helpful.

"These faces are never ever going to be rendered" Only if those faces are separate instances and there's culling, but they most likely will sit in memory still. If they aren't separate instances they will actually still get rendered, wasting GPU processing time.

So I just finished doing blender guru. Donut tutorial. And now I'm kind of lost on where I should go or what I should do next. Should I practice more into making more 3D models instead of focusing on all of the renders? And compositing, and all that stuff so that way I know, and make sure I'm able to. Be able to build anything in blender. Or should I focus more on the compositing rendering settings? Make sure I learn all that stuff and texture painting? What should I focus on prioritizing learning after the donut? Tutorials. If anybody whose experience with blender could give me some tips on what I should focus on it would be great

@Lattamonsteri 2 ай бұрын

I don't really have a good answer but I doubt you can do much rendering without some nice models to render :P So in that sense, maybe modelling could be the first thing you focus on if you want to focus on one aspect. But I'm sure many people would recommend doing full projects (from modeling to UV-unwrapping to texturing, animating, rendering and compositing) so you'll learn a bit of everything, but most importantly you'll practice finishing stuff. It's apparently quite hard. (I don't think I've ever been happy with my renders or animations because I cut corners every time because I'm dumb and lazy.)

@HollowsDarkness 2 ай бұрын

What they taught us in school is to basically pick something that is slightly above your level and try to model it. Repeat till you're a god essentially. What I do as well is I look up tutorials and watch them, see how they do their model, etc. I was watching someone make a Zippo lighter, watched the tutorial, then after I finished it, I went and tried to model it myself. I got about 90% of it done myself but had to rewatch for the holes at the beginning.

@@myztazynizta Well, to be frank, I'm really looking to land a solid job, something involving Blender. I’m eager to dive deep into creating 3D models, especially since I'm eyeing a 3D resin printer. But honestly, I want to master it all. The tricky part is figuring out where to start. What’s the best entry point? Should I focus more on mastering 3D modeling first? Or perhaps UV texture maps, rendering, animation? I’m just trying to sort out the optimal starting point to make the rest of the learning curve smoother. Ultimately, I need whatever skills I develop with Blender to boost my income. Right now, as a graphic designer with a bachelor’s degree, I’m stuck working at a custom T-shirt shop, earning less than minimum wage and feeling overqualified compared to the shop owner. College feels like a total scam. That’s why I’m driven to break into the 3D modeling or any related field-whether it’s VFX or something else-as long as it pays well enough to finally move out on my own. At 24, it’s frustrating to be stuck because my education hasn’t paid off like I expected. Really, college just seems like a huge rip-off.

that only happens when you model wrong. you still have an extra amount of vertices everywhere. I get using cubes like that is good for measuring but thats gonna mess up your UV map as it will make you unwrap each cube as a different object. You need to learn how to extrude. That entire thing should have been 1 cube. You can then cut and add vertices as needed. Also, all those cubes eat memory. That was literally a multiple of what should have been 1 cube worth of memory. You reminded me of EVERY new game developer who thinks they are special and can make the game have high detail by making everything huge; then after days of development find out they have to start over because of that bad choice.
