      Thanks a bunch guys !

      sh00ks- This model looks stunningly well !! Fantastic job ! I am very glad to see great models coming from great modelers !! Also thanks for buying the book !
      I am very sure we all can learn from each one's experience, even if we can do it in our own way !

      Keep it going !!

        Hi from Germany,
        very nice job ๐Ÿ‘
        One question: all this modells are meshes, right? I thinking about a 3D print of my modells (railcars, locomotives..) and for that you need real volumes, no meshes. I'm working with the pushpull plugin to change meshes to volumes but I have hard programm crashes if there are self-intersecting items (when the thickness of material is greater on the inside of curves than the radius of the rounding).

        Is there anyone here who works with real solids and can give me some advice?

        Regards
        Dor Sachse

          Hi !
          The best to have your model watertight is to start modeling it exactly for this purpose .
          Most of my models are kind of solid, with few more tweaks. As you said, when lot polys involved, making it watertight is a pain or even impossible .

          I recently modeled two trains and some traintracks and pillars for 3d printing, but knowing this I modeled them watertight from the first ! Also need to keep in mind, the scale, small details etc !

                I was trying to think how to get a clean reduced mesh like that from an sds mesh ๐Ÿ˜•

                You will never be able to reduce the subdivided geometry back to its initial form, unfortunately ,but you can undo and make changes until the form is as you want.

                  Stunning model of that BMW, great work... an ultra-high-poly model xD What plugin are you using to multiply polygons that way ? It would help a lot to improve my Stingray model so I won't be needed to multiply them manually 'cause it's a lot of work.

                          That is great. Those reflections.. yum yum. Do you know where can I get those HDRi skies you used ? Or some quality but free HDRi's ? Thanks ๐Ÿ˜„
