SubD examples and models
-
Yes Cotty, this printer has a very clever system of support. They break away very easily and the 'raft' somehow just pops off.
-
I think "little" is the wrong word here...
-
Since there was a little interest in printing results I did a quick cube SUbD box like the one I posted two pages back and printed it.
This is straight out of the printer. The rough bit on the top is where I pulled it off the raft, it will clean off. You can see the little gap created by JPP around the lid, but a quick sand and it should fit snugly. The faceting will also smooth off, you could subd further if you wanted it smoother. The smaller things are the more the facets show.In case anyone is wondering, it's not some weird photoshoped image, it's just the physical model sitting on a tablet screen.

Little is all relative, a few people hitting the thumbs up button is pretty big on the forum.
And as such I took it as interest. FB on the other hand can lead to expectations of hundreds or thousands of reactions, and if you don't get them it is a sure sign of little interest.
Interesting how the same word can mean different things depending on context. -
Here we go, a bit of sanding and a wipe with acetone, then another light sand and a buff.
The tiny tassel hinges took a bit of fiddling.

It's an Up Mini that I picked up used for next to nothing. The guy bought it new but never learnt to model so he got bored with it and basically gave it away. It's my home one, I have access to a bunch of much larger ones at work.
-
I'm astonished at the surface finish you got.
-
What can I say, elbow grease and a gentle touch.
-
Just a quickie. The combination of SUbD, Vertex and Quad face tools makes it so easy to shape, manipulate and select everything.

UV mapping in Wrap-R?

Some licorice?

No, by using quad face tools I easily selected the edges to create the various faces and manually painted them with the old bucket. So the colours are actual geometry.
-
lovely mesh...
-
Here's a little example of how I did the colours. Not the same model but a similar process.

"Soften" is a custom toolbar or an available plugin?

It's a plugin Cotty, one I always use.
It's ancestry is a bit muddled, but you'll find it in the store as Soften/Unsoften by CadFather.
I'm very happy to point it out for you as a thankyou for showing me Anton's Fixit101 a long time back. -

It's a very underrated plugin, isn't it?
Thanks for sharing the name of the soften plugin!
