Where still building the Grey River Bridge, and as this bridge has some special things to it, we will start with them today.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

On top of the bridge is a small toll station, and today we’re gonna make that toll house, so we’re back into Cheetah3D<\/a> again. We first make a box. As you can see, the scale of the bridge compared to a basic box, but in the virtual world, size doesn’t matter, as you can always rescale.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We stretch the box and set the polygon division like this, se resize it to be a little smaller and fit on the bridge.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now we select the middle of the top polygons and just pull it upwards.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We then select the three middle polygons, side, top & side and then we delete them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We the select the Weld tool (under Polygons) and weld the two points on each side, to make the roof like this.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We fill the two holes, then we select the two roofs and extrude them like this, very handy, took me a while to figure that one out, now I use it all them time.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We now select the nice borders that out extrude left us, and extrude them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But wait, something went wrong!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But just select the parts not extruded (that were created with that last extrude) and extrude them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now we can just Weld that and even remove that line if we want.<\/p>\n

So, in the next episode we will finish the toll house, are you curious?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
