          Thank you Thomas and Cotty - glad you like the model

          Cotty, I only know the Simpsonยดs Salat song version so far ๐Ÿ˜†

          Just to complete this Bender thing, I've made some new facial expressions just by changing Benderยดs 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.

                    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.

                        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.

                          In addition to the modelยดs complexity itself I first assumed that you had managed to make a screw thread inside this cylinder ๐Ÿ˜„

                            Yes, I had to rework things several times until I managed to maintain the cylindrical form.

                              I'll put my hands up and admit that I cheated on the threading. It really wasn't necessary, so I just used a saw-tooth profile. I've done SubD threading before but didn't really have the time for this model.

                                I wouldn't call it cheating. No need to use SUbD where it isn't needed. (Or any tool for that matter.)

                                  What I mean is that I used a saw-tooth profile rather than threading on the control mesh.

                                  In theory I could have used various modelling techniques on this and combined them, but SubD seemed like the best tool for coping with all the more difficult aspects at once.

                                  I even tried doing this in Moi first - because I was under the impression that it was supposed to be easier to model this sought of thing. The basic form with the tubes and 50% of the bevelling worked a treat, but it crashed and burned when it came to some of the more complex bevelling (where the small tubes meet the base).

                                    Hi
                                    quite similar to Cottyยดs example just right above I recently tried this tree-like structure,
                                    which is complete based on an octagonal geometry - This allowed me to start with only a halved
                                    tree first ๐Ÿ˜‰
                                    The first finished "branch fork"(?) I scaled, rotated and varied a little before mounting it to
                                    the previous one then...

                                          This one is just a test but I have to do something similar. I'll try to post the final model once it's done.
