      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.

                                Sorry, this isn't really a gallery thread, I should have added an unrendered image, so here it is.

                                      There is always an unsustainable suspense with this sort of polys modeling before you press the button! πŸ’š

                                        Equal amounts of impressiveness and bitterness tend to wash over me depending on the outcome... 😳

                                          Looks a mess...and then it resolves itself.
