      Yes, I create a rough proxy shape, then run SDS2 1 iriteration, then I use the SDS sculpting tools to refine the shape before subdividing a second time for finished shape, if I make a mistake I can just reduce the poly's with the SDS poly reducer (like an undo)fix and divide again.

      Here is an image of the proxy undergoing a divide, I can see how it will look before committing, really cool feature.

            I never saved any screen shots, however, I have an old tutorial (really old) that I made for a car tyre/tire, I used a similar process.

                The trick is knowing when to stop.

                    Wow, really nice model and a terrific render you have here, Pete. I am quite impressed. ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘

                    How long did it take for you to model it?

                    What rendering engine did you use?

                    Best,

                      ๐Ÿ˜ฎ wow Pete you have amazing modeling skills. So did I miss something, is there a SDS v2 out? or are you lucky enough to test it out?

                            That is fantastic Pete. Makes me jealous that I don't have much time to play myself.

                              Beautifully done, Pete. It's great to see quality work. I'm still playing with Thea, and so far, I like it. You reminded me a while back that because it's a WIP, tutorials are not available yet. Do you know of any decent lessons or tips that may be out there currently?
                              Thanks.

                                I'm going to be using SDS 2 for most of my modeling and texturing, I'm alpha/beta testing it as most here know.

                                          Pete ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ‘ Some dirt is missing, just to say something.
                                          These hdri based reflections are great. And work fast. The trick is simple though. Its a 'normals' projection and a fresnel trick. (this was for advanced users lol). Its true and a joke. Specs maps and effects work like this. Real reflections is a ray tracer thing and cost a lot of render time. And not always the best.
