    Nice and clean job.
    Really clever use of the "two step" subdivision on the hole.
    I use that trick a lot. πŸ˜‰

      What happens when you SUbD some cubes then hit them with Clothworks.

          May not be as cool as Box’s squished ballon things .. but needed a vintage dish soap bottle. SubD the best tool for the job. And to all you youngsters the bottles weren’t clear way back in the day. πŸ˜† πŸ˜‰ 😎

            There is a lot more skill involved in making a shape that matches something in the real world than there is in my random musings. πŸ‘

                  Thanks HornOxx. Fooled about trying some other approaches just for practice. Abandoned other ways for SubD and β€œbing bang” it was done. πŸ˜†

                    I believe I've found a fun retopolgy workaround in Sketchup 🀣
                    Of course is not as powerful as some dedicated tools like Topogun, but it can get the job done on simple objects without switching to a different software.

                        I simply smooth all edges from the triangulated mess, then I draw some pseudo-quad topology with TOS, extract that as a group, do a quick cleanup using VT2 "merge close vertices", and then use the most overlooked feature of QFT (convert wireframe into quads) to create a quadmesh to subdivide.
                        The smoothed mesh is just a tiny bit smaller of course because of the subdivision, so you may want to compensate for that with a little JPP.
