Blender 2.9 - Using Skin Modifier Only Breaks Segments into 3 Pieces

Question

Hello. I noticed that when I use the skin modifier, I only get three sections compared to six in the tutorial. Is it necessary to make some setting adjustments to get the same number of sections? Thank you.

Hey eennstar , the number of segments is consistent with the distance between verts.

Notice here 👇 just moving the extruded vert higher, will result in more segments.

Oh wow, didn't realize it was something that simple to fix. Looks like if I scale up the reference image by 2, the number of segments matches the video.

Thank you for the solution!
