Nice work as ever.
And most of all, it's great to see you back here, Rich.

Grazie amico mio

Scary mood ... fresh minced beef for my cat ...
Is a blender animation planned or in progress?

[thomthom]

Dude! Rich, that scene will haunt my nightmares - love it!

@thomthom

It began life in VT2....Then SUbD

For me the perfect workflow between Lo-Poly SU model that respects sudivision and Blender is this hidden tool of QuadFace Tools...

...which I think holds the record for the 2nd deepest plugin menu entry in the world...

@faust

I could go down the rabbit hole of animation...or keep my sanity. I'll choose latter.

Fun

Your Italian is 100% spot-on

I was just thinking about you recently because I wanted to share with you some tricks I fine-tuned based on your old wrap-r/substance tutorial as a starting point.
I shared a first insight of the workflow in this post.

Agreed. Thomas should bury it a couple of nesting levels deeper, so that nobody aside us know about it.

Meanwhile I created myself a button for it using ToolbarEditor.

Of course I chose the Pollo icon to celebrate the R&D stage

Here is the icon itself, in case Thom wants to include that toolbar button in future relases

Shame that Potato is stuck in a toolbar taking up space. You know where that that Potato icon would look really nice? In some type of snazzy DIY dynamic pie menu....

[Dave R]

Cool!

Well, I'm a bit of a toolbar-guy because I never used other apps with those pie-style menus..
but I know a bunch of people using similar stuff in Maya and such and they told me that is very handy.
Is that a beta plugin? Never seen it before..

Yes, it releases soon. Windows only, Mac not supported

I think Vertex Tools might battle this...

Ideally I'd want this to be part of the native export dialog box. If only I could get the attention of someone who works in SketchUp...

You know your path!

This is a fun one!
