      I was just fiddling with some ideas while eating lunch and thought it might fit this thread.

      I wanted a solid egg shape with pulled legs.
      I can make it in glass, I just wanted to see if I could model and effectively show it.
      So a very quick model, and an equally quick render.
      The whole thing could have been done in a 30min challenge.

      So here's the proxy and the artisan result.

      And a very fast Twilight render.

            really nice.. just try to achieve a bit cleaner topology in the bottom to avoid those little smoothing artifacts.. πŸ‘

              I'm not quite sure which artifacts you mean but I deliberately wanted to create the stretch you get when you pull hot glass.
              I took this another step further and made the full Faberge/Stark lemon juicer with a turned wood base. The glass picks up the wood texture nicely.
              The client specifically asked for something earthy with a modern feel and mentioned both Faberge and Stark and then threw in "but we love oriental Lacquer-ware". They looked at this today and said when can we have it.

                  If by the proxy you mean the rough before subdivide and smooth, No, fraid not, I'm far too casual to keep that. If I don't like something I start again or go back. Once it's working I move ahead so all I have is the model.

                      i mean the subdivision artifacts between the legs and the base wich usually can be simply avoided doing exactly what rich did with those control loops..

                        I think he reached a realistic effect in this special case. πŸ‘

                          Thanks Cotty, Yes, I'm fully aware of how to make the faces flat or regular. That's not what I wanted, so they aren't Artifacts they are design decisions.
                          Look at the shape you get when you pull a spoon out of thick honey, it's a fluid solid and behaves in a very particular way. The surface tension isn't uniform so you get stretching.

                                i was only pointing it in case you did'nt know of the control loops stuff, when you know what you are doing, "rules" can be broke here and there β˜€

                                  Makes sense to me.

                                  Molten glass has a much greater surface tension than something like honey, so whilst you will get deformation when pulling away gathers of glass, flat surfaces will tend to remain pretty even.

                                  If I was modelling this I would add control loops and then move their position to allow for varying degrees of deformation/stretch.

                                  I'd forget about actually making it in glass as it would be an absolute nightmare. Pulling multiple gathers off the plate whilst maintaining it's shape is one thing, but then adding in a pre-blown centre piece and twisting the gathers before everything collapses is insane....and then you'll have to keep everything in place whilst reheating the plate so that it will form-fit with the wood.....aaaarghhhh!!!!

                                    Obviously my 35 years of working with molten glass are meaningless.

                                        Pretty sure I didn't say that or give cause for you to take offence.

                                        If you aren't bothered about the topology and the model/render works for your purposes, then you've done a good job. I was just offering some friendly advice on how you could improve the model next time around.

                                        And just because I can see the difficulty in making the design in reality, it doesn't follow that I think you don't know what you are doing and you are not up to doing the job.

                                          I must have a better look at Blender when I have time.
