Sorry for being a pest, but was wondering if videos will be fixed? I think this is the best tutorial for Artisan so far, and would love to get my hands on it. C0hippwalters thank you for your hard work and generosity.

Awesome Chip!

It is great seeing what is possible with the Artisan organic 3D Modeling PlugIn for SketchUp.
The symmetry and simplicity in the Geometry is amazing. The SubDivision Tool is a neat addition, among others.

After reviewing a few of the videos I was also wondering if videos will be fixed? In agreement with AndriyG81, "I think this is the best tutorial for Artisan so far. C0hippwalters thank you for your hard work and generosity!"
I am using Artisian for a Concrete Dome Project, and would love to have extra insight. Is there any AUDIo with these videos, I didnt hear any.

Thanks for some Great Tools and Great Videos

Hey guys,

I'll try and get them fixed and up on YouTube tonight. Sorry, no audio, but I'll be glad to answer questions. I'll b sure and post here when they're available. Just wondering, are they too fast?

Thanks so much for posting these Chipp!

Great tutorial Chipp. It's a shame that creating support edges ends up involving so much clean up. Would be nice if there were a type of "swift loop" plugin as Max has. Also Chipp, have you tried the Vertex tools from ThomThom? If you haven't, it definitely makes life easier and is the perfect supplement to Artisan.

Thanks again for the work you put into this tutorial. It was very informative.

Part of the problem was me developing the modeling strategy and workflow all at the same time. I think I would do things a bit different now.

In particular, what features of Vertex Tools would you see using to make things simpler? I'm all for learning new tools.

BTW, there's another modeling thread where I posted the video below, done in about half an hour. It's another quick look at using Subdivide and Smooth to box model an organic hard surface model.
