      i'm interested in how you created the seat surface - not familiar with subdivide and smooth. did you extrude and intersect, followme or something more clever?

        Great render and model. Good to see that some people find kerkythea easy.

            Thank you again. I'm still trying to get a hang of Kerkythea which does get easier with time. The key like most everything is practice, practice, practice.

            I added a tutorial for the cushion above. Might get to the piping later today or tomorrow but for now it's as simple as using the line work from the component sections for the cushion (see skp file) and using Lines to Tubes. The centerline of the tubes and piping is the same line(s)you'll find around the component. It's a simple matter of copying and pasting the required line from the component.

            Make sure to weld the line work before creating the tube. Also, just make one tube (piping) section which you can convert into a component. There would be two piping components for the tufted area and one for the perimeter of the cushion (top and bottom).

              Thanks for taking the time to put together a really informative tutorial - it really helped me to better understand proxy modelling. Cheers πŸ‘

                    Thanks and you're welcome. I just added a piping tutorial. You'll need "Lines into Tube" which is available here at Sketchucation.

                    Here's the latest incarnation of the Barcelona Chair using Artisan rather than SDS. I used the sculpt brush to bump up the tufts a tiny but which also helps to smooth them out. Also did some dimension adjustments on the chair frame, stool and revised the steel to 12mm thickness.

                      I'm still on v7 but the tutorial is really intriguing. Anyone mind saving a copy down to v7 and sharing?

                        Brodie, I just uploaded parts 1 and 2 as version 6. Went down one more version just in case there are others still on 6. Hope that works for you.
