SubD examples and models
-
Happy to help . I'll take a look at your model tomorrow, but from the looks of things your workflow is coming along nicely (certainly more advanced than when I was starting out).
One thing I will add is that sometimes the extra geometry is worth it e.g. for UV mapping or selling models in different formats.
On the topic of UV mapping, I suspect that my left-hand control mesh might be the better approach for mapping. Hopefully someone who knows more about UV unwrapping will be able to confirm or refute this.

I was thinking about the mapping as well. there is some stretching visible so need to fix those. Its lots of fun. Artisan experience from few years ago helps a lot - its knife tool as well.
-
I still use Artisan where SubD isn't appropriate, but like you I use it in conjunction with SubD. As well as the knife tool I use it to preview subdivision as I'm modelling - mostly because it won't triangulate areas I haven't finished quad modelling, but also because it can give a more detailed preview of the flow and detail of the subdivision.
-
Wish: a universal toggle all SubD on/off (selected maybe) as right click option would be welcome. If you have an assembly of several subD's this is nice to have.

Isn't that in the works Thomas?

Just found afew minutes to look at your model properly Kaas. Really nice job.
I couldn't help putting on my Quad Police uniform and tackling a few unwanted tris (I lost a few loops in the process too).
I've highlighted the main areas that have been modified.

Much appreciated Hieru, I like the Quad Police. Your changes seem very logical. Thanks.

I tried to make a model for cutting plywood

Wow, Ithil!

Some very nice SubD examples (together with QuadFaceTools, VertexTools, ...) from "Winning with SketchUp"...

sorry for mistake I've made,I don't know how to post an image..I'm still learning how to manage quads and vertices, Thomthom's toolset is a magic

It was time to do a little exercise again ...
My sons asked me if I could do Bender from the Futurama series - so I did it
Bender - somehow I like that guy
-
That's a brilliant model!!

I like his song "Du findest keine Freunde mit Salat, du findest keine Freunde mit Salat, ..."
Nice model! -

Nice model!Thank you Thomas and Cotty - glad you like the model
Cotty, I only know the SimpsonΒ΄s Salat song version so far

I have posted these on the 3D Warehouse If someone wants them
