You also get gentle curves as things twist out of shape. Of course in reality things have sagged with time. Kind of gives you an appreciation for those who build such things in reality, doesn’t it?Įven if you did get up there an measure it, you might find some of the roof dimensions don’t add up quite right. Is this the best way to assimilate info on this? I think it’s back to YouTube to watch more tutorials. There is a lot going on in this software. I just needed them in approximately the right position to make the relevant view from the ‘extension side’ of the house look familiar in order to show it to the relevant authorities (wife). I knew that as I was hurriedly stitching them on. Sorry, the windows on the side are an embarrassment (another one…). One of my major headaches when building the roof was measurements, as I cannot get up there with a tape measure. I would worry that I was making a group with the wrong dimensions to ‘stitch’ on to the main group.Īnd I agree that starting again, although daunting, would be a better proposition that trying to fix all the inconsistencies that I have built into this model. Splitting the model up may simplify the work, but I am sure I need to watch more tutorials before I start again. But that probably says more about my character than ability. I was certainly feeling that, as the model grew, it was getting too much to deal with and found myself flitting to one sie and then the other. I need to learn about groups and components. Didn’t make the surface flat though so there is obviously another problem somewhere. Thanks to your suggestion of building triangles I did just spot the line at the back of the roof in the wrong position (between our communications) and moved it. I am sure that is at the root of many of my problems. The roof alone, and I haven’t even started on the back and lower side! I have found out that the house is a lot more complicated than I had realised. Hence my dabbling in things I do not understand. The main lump is our existing house and the smaller, single storey ‘L’ shaped piece on the right of your first pic is the potential extension that I am trying to visualise before going ahead and shelling out much time and money to build.
