Hello , im currently new to animation period i just decided to pick it up and get started . well i been going thru the tutorial and well im stuck here maybe you can give me some advice.
Feet
Now you'll build a foot. To keep thing simple it'll just be a tetrahedron that's been elongated. You can make a more sophisticated one if you like, of course.
Select Object->New and give it the name "Foot" using the Settings->Object menu item. Then add a tetrahedron. First select Build->Primitives-> Tetrahedron then select Add Primitive mode from the toolbar and add a tetrahedron to the object. Since your characters' bones are oriented along the Y-axis, we need to build the foot with the toe pointing straight up. So select Edit->Rotate->RotateX90 to reposition the tetrahedron and enter Point Edit mode. Drag select the top two points. Your image should look like the top on at the right. Deselect the X-axis and move the two points straight up to about twice their initial position. Then select the center point and move it down until it is on top of the lower point. The front and side views should look like those to the right.
Now go back to Object Edit mode and scale the foot until it's about two grid lines tall. Then move it up to rest on the origin with Edit->Locate->StandOnOrigin. Add a material with your choice of colors (I used a yellow orange 247/207/71). Apply it to the foot and it's finished. The right image is an ortho view of the final foot.
ok this is the directions you gave me to do i been following this step by step and the current issue im having is after rotating and entering point edit mode says drag select the top 2 points , well ive tried it many times and it will not select the top 2 points is there something that im not doing i,ve tried multiple times i changed it up i was able to select the top portion that turned yellow but wasnt in point edit mode. im confused a little. what am i doing wrong am i the only one that got confused here? just seemed like it would select those 2 points with the drag tool just a black bar that doesnt highlight any part of it. im 100% new just started this 2 hours ago was able to make the first 2 pieces but got stuck when i couldnt select the tips to continue. looked for videos, other tutorials for more in depth explanations but im stuck.
