Add a face between edges

Anonymous — Sun, 27 Mar 2016 17:58:20 GMT

Hi, mates!

I've got a tiny problem with a mesh that supposed to be a building...

How can I add 2 faces between the edges inside the building, so they'd look like floor and ceiling?

Thanks in advance!

Choose an edge and extrude it to where you need to to make the face...you may need to do multiple extrusions. Also merging verts and what not.

What about the planar? Or is it for something else?

You could use a plane and then stitch it together by connecting the verts...but I would extrude the edges and combine different verts to shape it with what you have. Adding another mesh would just force you to move verts around to where they need to be to combine it with what you have.

Extruding edges would be the most efficient way to do this operation in my opinion. Others may have a better/fast way...this is how I would approach it.
