Blender How To Perfectly Bend Meshes & Objects

Who can claim they know everything about 3D modelling bridges without knowing how to bend them?

This tutorial will cover how to bend meshes with the Blender modifier called simple deform. I will show you how to bend from any angle and how to bend large objects like bridges in multiple ways.

Watching this tutorial will set you up for a future tutorial focused on creating oriental style roofs.

I've watched a video tutorial abt bending object but it only got me frustrated as it didn't worked. But yours solved the problem I've been struggling for a day. Thank you!

[thomasevergreen]

"You're gonna need some edge loops, 'let me show you why-" That right there got you a sub immediately, you don't know how much I appreciate that blunt type of explanation

[ianbarddal]

Thank you for the nice job! I was trying all the sort of things around, and then I have found your tutorial and it clicked! Thank you so much again!

[FireDemon-irun]

This video help out alot,
Great job!

[ClearTheRubble]

Okay, this was a little bit TOO good and easy to understand. Subscribed. 🤠

[trashman]

Thanks for the tuto but would a lattice modifier would be better to have more control over how it bends ?

[icc]

What a nice job you've done! Congrats and keep it up! Thats so useful, thanks you so much 🤗🤗🤗

[chrislee]

6:30 *Using ctrl+a to APPLY transforms not reset them.

[Anonymousboxer]

can you teaches us how to create a basic knife

[wrillywonka]

lol i love this..i was just asking everyone the other day why no one can say oriental anymore. didnt make sense to me. good job not bein a weenie

[lordyrich]

I think I know but why do you have to do the part at the end when you change the rotation in edit then object mode?

[mmo]

When I tried this it just warped my geometry in bad ways... All I did was scale it, apply scale, add loop cuts, and then I tried to bend it with the modifier and it ignored the loop cuts and collapsed some of my geometry

[Iastrebner]

When I press control+j to join everything together, the parts touching each other disappear, creating holes. Any idea what is going on?

[fasspot]

Thank you for this great video!! :) I still struggle because my mesh always bend on itself... I don't obtain the same results as your bend, I don't understand why.... -_-

Hi there 3DTudor thnx for all those videos about Blender ect ect, but i have a question if i may? I have Blender 2.9 and also Blender 3.4 and i do exactly what you are telling in this video the first steps are ok but there is a problem when i am at 4.40 min of the video and doing the Array Modifer then it is all going wrong becuase i am not getting a second cube or ( stair step ) if you know what i mean and also i tried something else but i am in touble then when i must do the Loops because that dosent work, i have done this now for 5 days and it is not working, what do i do wrong ?? can you maybe help me pleace, because i want to make a curved stairs kind regards Dan.

[langstonreese]

How will I know what angle I’m bending at?

[CC-rxty]

would you know my it just tilts my object to the side instead of bending it?

[channelname]

have they cleaned up this workflow in newer versions? or do you still have to use such a silly method to achieve simple bends? my simple deform does nothing, even after applying scale and testing each axis and location of object origin.

[micahwright-dxkj]

ive done exacty what you did and it is not working i am confused
