Lesson 12 | Shoe 3D Modeling | 3DTRIX

The lesson begins with an overview of the importance of the heel and toe cap in the overall structure and design of the shoe. You’ll learn about their roles in providing support and enhancing the shoe’s silhouette.
You’ll start by modeling the heel cap, using both extrusion and sculpting tools to define its shape. The lesson will guide you through creating different heel types, such as flat, wedge, or block heels, and how to add extra details like heel grips or reinforcements.
Next, you’ll focus on the toe cap. You’ll learn how to add rounded or squared toe protection, depending on the shoe style. Techniques for creating more defined edges and adding realistic curves will be covered.
The lesson also covers adding extra details, such as decorative elements, reinforcement stitching, or texturing the heel and toe cap to reflect different materials like rubber, plastic, or metal.
The final section will discuss how to seamlessly integrate these components with the rest of the shoe model, ensuring the heel and toe cap fit well with the upper and sole without disrupting the flow of the design.
