      Solo, these are really amzing 😍

      I use sketchup daily, but obviously I have missed the release of these plugins that you are using. I will have to update my ruby collection, because I use simillar workflow as you do, but I do my organic modeling in max. I hope that it is as easy and fast to use as in max?

      Keep it up, I really like your work 👍

      Cheers, Andrija

          Ely, check your Pm for model.

          Coen & reymond, I will get to a tut later (attempt another video one)

          Had a few other things to finish this morning so here is a fast darkwing duck, still needs detailing.

            Okay here is a fast tutorial, I believe this will help folk understand my process better.

            In the .skp provided below are two components/models, one is the basic head shape and the other is a basic ear shape, both are rather simple.

            Use these two shapes to understand how Sub-smooth works, now! Explode and group each model/component seperately. Click on on group and then on the subsmooth icon (and select 2 Iterations. Once both are smoothed, resize and position ear (make a copy of the one you smoothed for other side) and rhen using shapes (sphere) create eyes and nose.

            It should look like this when completed.:

                Hey Solo!

                Love your work! Really nice looking. 👍 😍
                If you have some time over, maybe you can try doing Gizmoduck? 😄

                Keep up the good work!

                  As long as we are all making requests. . . .Asterix_Obelix_e_Ideafix_2-400x413.jpg. . .

                  Maybe I will give old Obelix a try myself. He's nice and round.

                  If I make it look easy...It is probably easy

                      jenjacob, I have done Asterix and Obelix, infact I did the entire Gaul village, the Roman outpost and a few legionares (Max, z-brush, SU). However I cannot even display them as it was done on contract and I waived my rights to them on sale (would not wanna p*ss my client off as they give me lots of work)

                      David, answer to you. Solo wrote this earlier in the thread.

                      Keep up the awesome work Solo!

                                        How about a gargoyle or the Green Man for those who like to model historic buildings.
