Figure 3.30 - Full model with both sides

Since they will be different objects, use a CTRL+J to join them, and later

apply a Merge using the distance option. It removes all duplicated

vertices.

Tip: A trick used by some artists to apply a mirror using the Scale

transformation consists of a scale with -100% of the object size. For

instance, select the object and press the S key. Type -1 as the factor to

get a mirror image of that model.

What is next?

The extrude is an incredible tool and is by far one of the highlights of this

chapter, but it won't solve all modeling challenges alone. You will still

need additional tools to create complex models. But, in most projects,

you use extrudes to build the vast majority of a model structure.
