SubD examples and models

[Dong su]

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

Great modeling, use of Subdiv and cartoon render...but just as important, full of character. Love it.

[HornOxx]

Thanks All I very much appreciate that you like this little simple "character" fun

Carpenter Ant

I post my models here because I want illustrate to others who may be interested in Organic modelling that it's quite possible with Sketchup, largely because of the amazing extensions (QuadFace Tools, Vertex Tools 2, and SUbD) that ThomThom developed. The more I work with them the greater appreciation I have. Model on!

The painted low poly model was later edited to improve on the leg detail. You can see in the Substance Painter example below how the legs had lost their definition after subdivision. I later used QuadFace Tools to add loops to maintain shape.

Substance Painter

I used the free trial of V Ray and Substance Painter to add some realism. I have not had any prior experience with either so the results are not good, but they do help to add some realism.
