      Anyone have any idea how I would go about creating this Chair? Not sure where to start? Which plugins? etc... I dont see a line tool that will let me draw curves other than the arc so I guess, the first thing i need to know is which plugin I need to draw organic shapes. Freehand seems too messy. I have teh Bezier curve plugin but think i need a vector type continuous drawing tool. (probably something super obvious that everyone is already using but this will be the first time I am creating a more complex organic shape from scratch.

      I guess beyond the organic drawing tool I need to know how to go about creating this... soap skin? Curviloft? any other Vertex tools? I really dont know where or how to start this one????

      Thanks!

            Hello Shanna, as far as I can remember, this model I made โ€‹โ€‹mostly just with CurviLoft plugin.
            Chair similar to Cane Line

                  Yes and I have been wanting to explore Sketch UV (I have it installed but have not really used it yet) Have not heard of roadkill yet...When I am done modeling I will see about using this tut to help me learn those two plugins. Thanks!
