In Part 1 we created the basic geometry.<\/a> Let’s add some geometry<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Right Click on the object to bring up the marking menu and select Face<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  • Rotate the perspective view so you look at the bottom of the flat cube you created.<\/li>
  • Select the four polygons on the corners of the underside<\/li>
  • Click on the Extrude<\/strong> icon
    (command can be found in the Polygons<\/strong> menu under Edit Mesh<\/strong>)<\/li>
  • Pull on the blue arrow of the manipulator that appears (the Y axis) and pull the polygons down to create the legs of the chair.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    • Rotate the perspective view so you look at the top of the stool you created.<\/li>
    • Select (switch to select tool by hitting q<\/strong>the two polygons on the corners in the back of the topside<\/li>
    • Click on the Extrude<\/strong> icon and pull on the blue arrow, pulling the polygons up a bit to create beginning of back of the chair.<\/li>
    • Click on the Extrude<\/strong> icon again and pull the polygons up a bit more.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      • Select the top one of the two polygons on the inside of the back-sides you just created<\/li>
      • Rotate your view and shift select (add to selection) the polygon facing it on the other side<\/li>
      • Click on Bridge<\/strong>
