Blender is a powerful, free and open-source 3D creation suite. It supports the entirety of the 3D pipeline—modeling, rigging, animation, simulation, rendering, compositing and motion tracking, video editing and 2D animation pipeline.

With its cross-platform compatibility and vast array of features, it’s no wonder that Blender is the go-to software for 3D artists and animators around the world.

One of the most powerful features of Blender is its ability to extrude individual faces. This allows you to quickly and easily create complex 3D models from simple 2D shapes.

In this tutorial, we’ll take a look at how to extrude individual faces in Blender. We’ll start with a simple 2D shape and then use the “Extrude” tool to create a 3D model.

First, let’s create a simple 2D shape. We’ll use the “Polygon” tool to create a four-sided shape.

Next, we’ll select the faces that we want to extrude. In this case, we’ll select all four faces.

With the faces selected, we’ll go to the “Edit” menu and choose “Extrude”.

This will bring up the “Extrude” dialog box. We’ll leave the default settings as they are and click “Ok”.

This will extrude the selected faces and create a 3D model.

And that’s all there is to it! With the “Extrude” tool, you can quickly and easily create complex 3D models from simple 2D shapes.

Q: How do you extrude faces individually in blender?

A: There is no "extrude faces individually" command in Blender. However, you can select a face, then press E to extrude it, and then press S to scale it down.

Q: How do you extrude faces?

A: There are a few ways to extrude faces in Blender. One way is to select the faces you want to extrude, then press E to extrude them. You can also use the Extrude tool in the Tool Shelf (press T to open the Tool Shelf).

Q: How do you extrude inwards without leaving faces?

A: There are a few ways to do this, but the easiest way is to first select the vertices or edges you want to extrude, then press E and S to scale them inwards.

Q: How do you extrude a face at an angle in blender?

A: There are a few ways to do this:

  1. Select the face you want to extrude, and press E to extrude. Then, while still holding down E, use the mouse to drag the face in the direction you want to extrude it.

  2. Alternatively, you can press E to extrude, and then X, Y, or Z to constrain the extrusion to the X, Y, or Z axis, respectively. Then, use the mouse to drag the face in the direction you want to extrude it.

  3. Another option is to press E to extrude, and then Shift+X, Shift+Y, or Shift+Z to constrain the extrusion to the X, Y, or Z axis, respectively. Then, use the mouse to drag the face in the direction you want to extrude it.
