You could use TIG's slicer on that. Hmmm. I think it's time for toast.

If you model a standard loaf of bread with Artisan you will learn most of the basics of the Artisan process.

I'm curious as to what a 'standard' loaf of bread looks like?
Perhaps you could illustrate....

I had a teacher in college who had us model a loaf of bread as a 3D assignment to teach us how to use the smoothing and creasing functions in Maya (same principles as Artisan). Unfortunately I didn't keep the model. It's harder than it might sound. It's a good exercise as it usually forces you to explore different topologies in order to achieve an ideal result. In class we all had to print up our topology before and after smoothing and pin them up on the bulletin board so we could see which models worked better than others.

It seemed like a boring assignment at first but I learned a lot from it.
