I tried to make a model for cutting plywood

Some very nice SubD examples (together with QuadFaceTools, VertexTools, ...) from "Winning with SketchUp"...

sorry for mistake I've made,I don't know how to post an image..I'm still learning how to manage quads and vertices, Thomthom's toolset is a magic

Another simple example...

It was time to do a little exercise again ...

My sons asked me if I could do Bender from the Futurama series - so I did it
Bender - somehow I like that guy

That's a brilliant model!!

cotty · 21 Oct 2016, 15:58

I like his song "Du findest keine Freunde mit Salat, du findest keine Freunde mit Salat, ..."
Nice model!

Thank you Thomas and Cotty - glad you like the model

Cotty, I only know the Simpson´s Salat song version so far

Just to complete this Bender thing, I've made some new facial expressions just by changing Bender´s eyes and his tooth lines, which is quite funny
I have posted these on the 3D Warehouse If someone wants them

one the hardest transitions to tackle in subd is the pipe perpendicular to a pipe. the poles (5 star) cause the pinching and irregular shape.

Hieru · 22 Oct 2016, 15:05

Funny you should mention it Rich, but that's exactly what I had to deal with the other week.

The general opinion is that you have to increase the detail (segments) of your cylinders.

And a here's a quick render.

Rich O Brien · 22 Oct 2016, 15:13

when then pipes meeting the surface are smaller than the parent it's tough to keep things cylindrical.

i wish there was a Spherize extension for SU like Blender has.

HornOxx · 22 Oct 2016, 15:21

this is a good model example Hieru thanks for sharing!
In addition to the model´s complexity itself I first assumed that you had managed to make a screw thread inside this cylinder
