Hi Marcus, can you explain the 'crease' a bit more? The model has the labels but I'm missing the creases.

Just use the Crease tool (at least that's what its called in Subdivide & Smooth), and click on each of those vertices. The Crease tool icon changes from Red when uncreased to Green when creased. There's not a visible effect right away on the model, but you'll be able to tell the difference after running the plugin.

...or in this case, Jeff's way is simpler, but you'll still want to crease the end vertices before subdividing so you get square ends.

Thanks to ninopiamonte, shri, d12dozr, mitcorb for your kind words. I'll try to add new examples regularly. If you have any ideas for simple geometries, let me know or feel free to share them here too...

Another example: a very simple wind flower...

Here's a little contribution to this great thread:

This one can be certainly found on the internet but I found this an interesting modelling challentge. Could be better but there you go.

Thanks a lot for starting this Cotty!

Wonderful!

Would like to see some steps towards the proxy. Is that all free form joining of edges, say for carafe?

Here are some of the first steps, I will make a more detailed "making of" for the next example...
