Lemon Slice Tutorial: Part 4 - Extract
For the next part of the tutorial I will show you how to use the extract tool to separate your single lemon object into two halves. It's a very basic procedure and doesn't require many inputs from the user so this tutorial may be very brief but the extraction tool is useful so this tutorial will come in handy.
As you can see from the above picture I have separated the object into two separate halves, here is a numbered list as to what you need too do for this tutorial.
- Select the front plane as seen in the picture so you have a more accurate location to select half of the object.
- Right click the lemon object and click on "Face".
- Once face is selected, drag and drop a box around a little bit less than the half way point.
- Once the half of the lemon you want to cut is highlighted, click on the "Edit Mesh" tab that is highlighted by the red circle in the picture, this will separate the lemon into the separate piece you highlighted.
- Now right click on the separated half and select "Object mode".
- You are now free to move the two separate objects!
Now we have them into two different objects! You may have noticed that the two objects are both hollow but in the next tutorial I will teach you how to add an image of a halved lemon to fill the space and make it look cut in half.
