Tie fighter project
I'm currently working on the tie fighter, as a beginner, but for the past few days i've got nowhere with the third lesson concerning the wing.
Please see attached pic.
The issue i have concerns exturding the outer framework, i've selected the object gone to exturd but everytime the outer frame exturds not as a solid. It appears there is no front face to the frame.
What have i done wrong? is there a way to replace the front face?
Many thanks

Thanks for all who responded. I tried the suggestions but still had the same result as before.
I think the problem is that the front face is missing, so when i extrude all that happens are the sides and rear face extrude. If i take the extrudtion in the other direction the rear face is missing.
Is there a way to replace a missing face??
Thanks.

Can you send me your scene file, and I'll see if i can figure out the issue?
Its been so long since i recorded this tutorial, i don't fully remember every step of the process and the order i did them in.
Thank you

Thank you for responding.
i think i've worked something out, hopefully correct, i went into normals as sugguested which didn't work then i clicked on conform and the issue disappeared. please see pic.
I've just started using maya and this is my very first attempt at modelling so hopefully i've not done something that will catch me out later.
Happy new year to you and your family.
