Help with Metasquoia The_weanis
Hey /po/, I'm trying, I repeat, TRYING to make a Viewtiful Joe papercraft, but I'm a total n000000b with Metasquoia, here's what i need now,
I'm trying to make the head, and I have the V for his helmet, the only problem is... it's laying flat when I want it to be pointing up, any way to flip it the right way?

Remember that 3D modelling isn't like drawing with a pencil, where you add lines to make the image, it's more like sculpting, where you start with a primitive, and shape it/remove parts to get the shape you want. If you want to make a box, you don't connect 6 squares together, but you make a cube primitive.

If you have a (sur)face in Metasequoia, you can use the knife tool to make a cut: click and drag from one edge of the (sur)face to another edge (begin a little in front of the edge and end a little further than the edge). A cut will be made and on the two edges you will have two new points. Adjoining surfaces will also be cut, and if you don't hide all the other (sur)faces, they might also get cut if you're not careful.
