Shape Modeling Exercise Series - #3 (Fenestron Tail Rotor Blade) from Kernon Dillon on Vimeo.
In this shape modeling exercise we take a look at modeling a Fenestron Tail Rotor Blade.
You can download the blend file and the reference image at http://tinyurl.com/266qxu2 .
----------------------
The point of these videos is not to model a complete object but to rather focus on different shapes and issues that you may encounter while modeling. So, essentially, these are exercises.
Hopefully, these videos will help you better understand how to approach modeling certain shapes, and what tools are available in Blender to make things easier.
MY NOTES:
To create a little gap b/w the outer rim and inside circular section:
Select the rim (alt + left)
Shift+D to duplicate
Mesh -> Vertices -> Seperate (by selection)
* also check using proportional editing (at 25:00)
