Very good head! Is there some way the mirror boudary is controlled to not have a visible change in the surfaces' angle? The ear proxy doesn't show much what you did. That must have been a harder part.

Thank you. I find that that boundary edge between the two mirrored halves to be a problem. I try to manipulate that edge with the 2 halves in place to see if its either raised or depressed on the plane. Once I'm happy then the 2 components can be exploded and joined

I had done the ear a while back as another exercise. I just stuck it on to complete the profile. My goal here was not to produce a finished product, but to gain experience with quad modelling and all its intricacies.

Next exercise: Focusing on Poles in quad modelling, reducing their number.

Very nice! Thank you for posting back your experience and progress.

I love to see what people create, and hearing the experience helps me with future development.

Even though you sold the vertex tool and received payment,
You didn't give me a code email.
Homepage inquiries and Facebook inquiries are also unanswered. When are you going to give me the code?

Haven't used SubD in a while.... knocking off the rust. Mid century modern style sculpture. Bird was SubD and Vertex Tools. Posting the proxy for the bird and a quickie render of the finished model. Another piece for the parts file. Call me the king of simple stuff .

Great . Just the bird's tail should be a little different

Wondered who’d noticed the sideways tail . Worked from a photo of a piece from the 1960’s and that’s how the tail was done go figure ? Might change it might not.... haven’t made up my mind yet. Would be a pretty quick change .

wunderbar! A so nice small work (and a good metal representation in the render by the way!)

Nice. What a good reminder to keep it simple. SUbD does most of the work if we just keep it proportional. A good presentation that took a simple model to another level. Thanks for posting
