  1. You make it seem so easy!! All you do is select one polygon and extrude and scale and reposition them and look at the master pieces you create !! While I am stuck here for 2 hours, trying to get to make a simple fortress 🙁 Your videos are really helpful though … Appreciate it 🙂

  2. Heya. At 23:29, you indicate you can bridge these two holes. When I try it, one of two things happens:
    1) It tells me that I need to have the same number of edges selected on each side (which I double checked, and I did, each time). When I extruded the edges dramatically, I only saw those edges moved… though some of the edges looked like the "interior" edge instead of an exterior edge.
    2) I extruded a hole to make it easier to select specific vertexes, and when I made the bridge from there, each edge that I bridged twisted around into an "X".
    So it seems like some of the edges I'm selecting are the inside of an edge instead of an outside and I don't know how to fix this. 🙁 Any tips?
    Addendum: I attempted to select all of the edges and "fill hole". Nothing happened, in spite of it stating: //Result: polyCloseBorder3

  3. HI Mike and thanks for make this tutorials come true, and by the way greeting from Colombia, in this video I noticed that sometimes you did not use the magnets or snaps to move the object, Remember my friend you can use this by pressing the Insert key, then pressing the V key at the same time, and then pressing and keeping hold the mouse center button, you can move the pivot an object specific point, and then if you want to align it to the grid, you simple press X key, and then pressing and keeping hold the mouse center button, you can move the object to the grid and continue working. That's only a suggest I just made, but I am really glad to have found you channel, it is really interesting and I've learnt a lot with your my Teacher.
