Meshing Part Three - Porch Column attempt number one :)
After almost two weeks of solid study and reading fun, I finally made a porch column that is almost perfect. I have a few issues with the bottom (haven't created the base yet) and a couple odd pokey things that didn't disappear when I removed duplicate vertexes. But! At least it is standing straight and not leaning... (remembering that I can lock on the z axis would be really nice to remember, I actually had to put a sticky note on the corner of my monitor)
Once I figure out what I broke with the pokey thing, and can lathe up columns at will, I will start working with the import/export to Milkshape, then see what happens when it's applied to a clone. I am still foggy on what I need to make sure follows the .obj file, so more reading for me!
Here is a picture of the alpha column.
