Tutorial T501 Make a vase

Let's make the following vase.

I use TATARA 5.0 from this time.

I prepared the background image of the side of the following vase.

Let's make the vase from the following steps.

5) Choose Load on the Texture menu and apply the texture of the created vase.
6) Choose Save on the File menu, and maximize and save a sculpt-map file.

TATARA should extend the background image automatically.
So, please delete the margin of the background image.

Since the default edit mode of TATARA is ROKURO mode, you don’t need to change the tab.

The editing pane is displayed as follows.
The background image is expanded horizontally.

To edit comfortably, set Edit Level in the bottom of an Edit pane as Middle.


Let's make the outside of the vase in ROKURO mode.
As shown in the following figures, arrange the control point of the segment of the bottom of the vase.

Next, as shown in the following figures, in order to decide the number of control points required for an inner side, arrange the inner side of the vase temporarily, and arrange the control point of the segment of the edge of the upper part of the vase.

Arrange the remaining control points on the curved surface of the outside of the vase.

Furthermore, arrange the control points of the gray circle.

To arrange the control point of the curved surface at equal intervals, choose the control point of red area.

Choose Equal Distance on the Edit menu and arrange the control points at equal intervals.
There is Equal Distance also in the pop-up menu which right-clicks an editing view and is displayed.
You can use Ctrl+G of the shortcut key.

Repeat this several times pleasing until the control points will not move.

Then, control points are rearranged over the side of the vase as follows.

Please adjust the control points of the side to become smoother.

As shown in the following figures, rearrange the control point inside the vase.

Let's use the mesh texture currently displayed by the preview as follows.
