Classic SUbD.
Some techniques I'm playing with for an upcoming project.

hey - this tentacle-like "suction cup(?)"-thing is extraordinarily promising and superbly textured already now! - I'm curious to see what follows here

Ditto from me also.........

I wish SubD was/think it ought to be part of SketchUp.

Sorry, this isn't really a gallery thread, I should have added an unrendered image, so here it is.

what a beautiful example!
(do you all also feel that this smoothing process still impresses you again and again?)

There is always an unsustainable suspense with this sort of polys modeling before you press the button!

Equal amounts of impressiveness and bitterness tend to wash over me depending on the outcome...

[Box]

Looks a mess...and then it resolves itself.

[Rich O Brien]

That's yummy.

Getting your scout badge for knots?

[Box]

Cheers Rich.

I remember being stunned by someone doing a knot way back when I was learning, so I like playing with them from time to time.
I liked the idea of using subd for it to make it a bit more 'loose' rather than the perfectly straight ones done with perfect curves and lines.

Renders nicely too.

If you tilt your head to the left you see a guy playing a saxophone!

[Box]

A little more knotting.

[HornOxx]

klasse!

...prima Tuna1957 not to forget this "rounded seam" (is there any term for this?) on the edges of the upholstery makes such a furniture model so much better

Thanks HornOxx. I believe Your referring to the “welts” around the cushions…. Welt is the only term I’ve ever used for these. I’m sure there may be other terms used in other parts of the world. What I found interesting in the reference picture I worked from there were no welts around the main body of the chair, just around the cushions.
