      Pete,

      Not only am I watching, my eyes are bugging out! 😲

      Amazing, amazing, amazing [repeat ... ].

      Care to break down the process a bit? Please?

      I tip my hat to a true artist.

      Fred

        Well the method is similar to the way you do it, as you will notice i forgot to resize the bird to it's normal size (about 80 ft now) I had to upsize the model in order to use the smooth tools and manipulation tools.

        If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

            Pete,

            I still don't understand how you do it but that's ok.

            Do you know the go-2-school video podcast tutorials?

            You should consider doing something similar focusing on the type of work you are creating. If you produced a DVD of videos of your processes and techniques I for one would purchase it.

            Just a thought.

            Fred

              Pete,

              I could not agree with fred more about you possibly doing some video tutorials. I think many people would love to be able to see how you do alot of the things we see from you. Maybe even some podium video tutorials too.

              Scott

              Great work on the bird by the way.

              Love the fact that some HATE my avatar.....

                Scott,

                Right on regarding the podium tutorials. Great idea! DVD # 2. Just think Pete, your wife will be able to buy even more shoes!

                    I dont know why you put the question mark there, it is an amazing model, I wish I was as good as you guys. Well, Im young, I have homework and a nagging mother, so I dont have the time! You guys really inspire me.

                      Great component that will certainly get used, thanks Pete.

                        Thank you Pete for the bird component.
                        Great job on that modeling.

                        It's a bit low poly but the birdies render.

                          Oh well, you mostly need them from a distance anyway... 😉

                            Looks like an Alfred Hitchcock scene. 😮

                              Solo! Thanks!
                              This is exactly what I need right now.
                              I was asked to design a blind for the eco-garden at my young sons school so that they could do some bird watching.
                              This will certainly enhance the model.
                              Thanks for sharing.

                              If you don't know where you're going, you're never going to get there.

                                    Wow, Solo -- low poly birds are really easy to manipulate. I haven't actually tried to make anything that's low poly, but there's some interesting flocking potential... 💚

                                    Real life is just another website, albeit a rather boring one.

                                      Oh this is amazing! Would you put a short tutorial about how did you modeled that bird? It might be usefull for all of us.
                                      Thanks.
