question about extrude tool

Anonymous — Sun, 22 Jan 2017 01:26:34 GMT

I've attached some pictures to show you guys exactly what I'm talking about. I used the insert edge loop tool to create a loop around a cube. I then selected the four faces, hit extrude, and scaled them out uniformly. But as you can see instead of pulling the faces out straight there is a bit of an upward angle creating something of a cup effect to the geometry. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong? I'm trying to pull all of the faces straight out.

I feel your pain. Try extruding outward by increasing the thickness value.
