      Thanks, yes I do hear it a lot and I love it, thats the whole reason for posting ๐Ÿ˜„

      The beak was done using Subdivide and smooth, FFD and a lot of close up mesh manipulating. The beak took longer than the rest of model combined, but now it's saved and I hopefully never have to make another.

                        Thanx guys.

                        LOL@Biebel, never seen that one before.

                        Actually not sure I know Jabberjaw (unless he is part of the Mermaid thing.)

                        jenjacob, I have done Asterix and Obelix, infact I did the entire Gaul village, the Roman outpost and a few legionares (Max, z-brush, SU). However I cannot even display them as it was done on contract and I waived my rights to them on sale (would not wanna p*ss my client off as they give me lots of work)

                        ely862me, I will send it to you later in PM (it may be a little large as fine mesh was used on detail areas)

                                  Solo, these are really amzing ๐Ÿ˜

                                  I use sketchup daily, but obviously I have missed the release of these plugins that you are using. I will have to update my ruby collection, because I use simillar workflow as you do, but I do my organic modeling in max. I hope that it is as easy and fast to use as in max?

                                  Keep it up, I really like your work ๐Ÿ‘

                                  Cheers, Andrija

                                      Ely, check your Pm for model.

                                      Coen & reymond, I will get to a tut later (attempt another video one)

                                      Had a few other things to finish this morning so here is a fast darkwing duck, still needs detailing.

                                        Okay here is a fast tutorial, I believe this will help folk understand my process better.

                                        In the .skp provided below are two components/models, one is the basic head shape and the other is a basic ear shape, both are rather simple.

                                        Use these two shapes to understand how Sub-smooth works, now! Explode and group each model/component seperately. Click on on group and then on the subsmooth icon (and select 2 Iterations. Once both are smoothed, resize and position ear (make a copy of the one you smoothed for other side) and rhen using shapes (sphere) create eyes and nose.

                                        It should look like this when completed.:
