      What is the best way to learn and what other tools should I acquire (also in previous post)?

      Learn by trying and failing and trying and succeeding.

      When you fail. Post a topic. When you succeed post a topic. πŸ‘

      All you need is QuadFace Tools, SUbD and Vertex Tools.

      Download the free D'oh Book for SketchUp πŸ“–

        and in addition to what rich said, i would strongly reccommend also split tools, autosmooth, curviloft, beziere surface, and extrude tools for quick quad-topology generation, not mandatory plugins, but stll very useful in this workflow.. also the stunning "flowify" supports quads, but maybe that's a bit advanced if you are absolute beginner in this modeling techniques..

          once you catch the basic trick, every plugin you are confortable with can be useful in the process..
          (still missing a quad version of jointpushpull or any other very needed proper quad-shell IMHO)

          here is point tools + voronoi + split tools + vertex tools + sub-d + beziere surface + flowify

            cotty, have you tried any in Sketchy Physics, etc...

            Can you explain your question a bit more?

              looks clean modeling.. πŸ‘ Overtime, a good modelling habit will get us there. Sometime ago, I requested an offset that produces quads right away so that split tools wont be necessary..

                                  I did this for something else but may as well drop it in here too.

                                      For crazzy models you can use the incedible TopMod! 😎

                                      And Import OBJ by TIG for "SU MAKE"! πŸ€“

                                        pilou did you try with .obj importer from quadface tools? it should preserve quads..

                                          My original start TopMod model had some triangular faces!
                                          And some original TopMod surfaces are curved!

                                            i saw the triangles, but i suspect the "curved" should be simply non-planar quads.
                                            in that case quadface importer could hopefully handle them..
                                            is topmod free? that looks intersting..
