      Fast model building....wow, I'm impressed. Can anyone show some Bonzai models in production? Where is the money? or is it just a toy? I see SU earning money everyday. I'd like to see where the potential is for this app. Not hypothetical, real. I would be more inclined to use it if it was a money maker. For the sake of hobby, yes fast modeling is a game we can play. Tell me guys, where is the meat?

      First attempt at the model above with SU, 18 seconds, at a leasurely pace. I don't get it??

        I find the whole thread to be out of place and a waste of space. The fact that other modeling companies feel they need to trespass here to promote is the first sign of their weakness.

        I agree. This thread has been taken way off-topic, and I don't think it belongs here.

        Hi

          Here is one for you to try out. This matching couch and chair took 44 seconds to build with SU.

            Id much prefer they come and offer support rather than leaving people to flounder around trying to work things out for themselves.

            Hebrides, if you can be bothered (its quite a hassle, i know) id love to see a screen capture of you modelling the moi challenge. I had a quick go and got around 1 min, and i consider myself a reasonably proficient with SU.

              Well yes it is a bit of a job...I can understand your wanting to confirm this time. You will just have to take my word for it. I have been using SU from the beginning, 6 to 8 hours everyday, thankfully weekends off. That would put my time in SU just over 10,000 hours. Believe me, once you have that many hours under your belt the whole process becomes a reflex. It is also about shortcuts. One hand on the keys and one hand on the work. It is just like playing an instrument, after hours of practice it becomes an extention of your thinking.

                  What a pity that a SU genius like yourself cannot master a simple screen capture software. How lucky we are though that you can tell us how great you are.

                      ...Booelan plug did'nt exist at this date maybe that change something now? (and Michael wanted that I didn't use many plug)...

                      Why not? Plugins are deliberately made possible in (and part of) SU therefore they belong to it. You can put it this way; that's SU's strength over many modellers. If you want to compare modellers,compare them in their full capacities - including plugins.

                      It's like comparing a sail boat to a steamboat - "but you cannot use coal for the steamboat" (because it's not part of it in the shop). πŸ˜’

                      Anyway, as you say, BoolTools didn't exist then so this is just theoretical. πŸ˜„

                        But sure plugins must be integrated with any restriction! β˜€

                          I understand that Michael himself built MoI in a modular way, right, Pilou?
                          I've seen in the MoI forum that he can easily add functionalities to it, just as Ruby Masters do with SU.

                            Yes of course πŸ˜‰
                            But Michael see his prog for some users : beginner , or advanced
                            That was just for use basic functions no more, and again with a prog in early conception so not possible to have all functions πŸ˜‰
                            Like now Su has not "Bend" function (Fredo6 is making a cool one)
                            it will be unfair to ask a bending object if bend don't yet exist πŸ˜‰

                              Hello,

                              A few of you asked to see projects done with bonzai3d. While it is still Beta software (which is generally not recommended for paying projects), there have been a few user posts showing projects. You can find more about these here:

                              http://www.formz.com/forum2/messages/32331/34223.html

                              and

                              Of course, we have had a lot of much larger projects sent to us, but unfortunately we have not yet received permission to publish these. Look for more images posted to our forum in the near future!
