Model this - a simple cube

hmmm...
I may need to scale back my 'Model this' complexity, as clearly we are all still struggling with the basics.

My cube turned out inside-out, I'll post a picture when I get it right...

Another view - this time from the back.

After lot's of tutorials, I get this....

Gai.....PLEASE!!!!! share your blueprints!!

Man this is hard. .. .Still not gettin' it.

If any of you guys are really interested in 4D understanding and illustration, I strongly recommend you watch these set of videos.
The torrent downloaded (legal, offered at his site) videos are incredibly crisp and fluid.
Truly mind bending.

"Aha! Easy!" I thought...
"In 2D you draw two triangles to get a square - so surely two pyramids make a cube."

With ZBrush I tried to find the ideal shape, then import Obj into Sketchup. Treated with Subdivide and Smooth. But already looks almost perfect.

And so I have a cube in my head.

And so goes the complexity of the cube...

Well... If were going to talk cubist....

Cube Tutorial

-Take a picture of the cube.
-Import the photo into Sketchup.

I propose that we set up a new forum for Cubists. We need the cube necessarily to develop. It is still a long way to the perfect cube. I call it the squaring of the cube. Might be worthy of the Nobel Prize.

I dunno, that name is too square, you need to think outside the box.
-
Took me awhile but I think I got it so it looks square from every side.
I thought SU was supposed to be easy to use?

I've found it at last, the earth is not a sphere but a cube. I will outline the evidence tomorrow.
Have a good night

I found that if I modeled this correctly, I would get a perfect square. Late Password Host Allen Ludden -- the most perfect square I know.

Another attempt, in "Escher style"

We should propose to Google to update the elevation maps so that it fits better into this packaging:
Initiative for efficient packaging!
