👀 How To Use Smooth Lines In 3D Projects 👀

Hey guys, I’m Jack, a 3D and immersive web designer, and today I’m showing you how to make a smooth object with a single shape.

✨ What’s in Store:
When creating 3D models, achieving smooth curves and seamless edges is essential for a polished and professional look. A common mistake that many beginners make is combining multiple shapes without considering how they interact, leading to visible seams and uneven surfaces.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to create a smooth, continuous shape using the extrude, inset, and loop cut tools, ensuring that your model maintains clean and fluid lines.
