SubD examples and models

and not only that - I expect floating capability even Well, is plastic...and you know that 3D printing software makes that honeycomb structure inside... so I expect it will float... but I can't guarantee it won't be upside down
I didn't do any buoyancy calculations, not even to find its center of gravity... (tig has a plugin for that, right?) -

pilou, that image doesn't load right to me...

I haven't had time for ages just to have a play, so this was a relaxing bit of fun.
One interesting thing that came out of it that I was half aware of, you can twist your quads so they are kinda inside out and SUbD will still make beautiful shapes from them.

For a while, I thought your model was too messed up for SubD to actually work.Awesome discovery by just playing around..
-
I'm pretty sure it helped that I twisted it using Vertex tools as it tends to retain a good quad structure.

Very elegant!

A simple heater...

this is a perfect example for quad modeling
are you using this spacemouse? -

... maybe simple - but very smart to build just a quarter of only one heater segment and to copy-mirror everything to a whole heater - a nice model idea! -
Useful for these frozzen times!
-
Wonderful examples. Loving meshes that have the bare minimum of quads to define a shape.

A soft knurled knob for a friend's gadget.
It will be a 3d print, the render was just for fun.
-
I and Google Translate have no idea what a "knurled knob" is but these "segment rings" look great - are all these individual "subDed" components? -
gnarly knurled knob, dude!

@HOx
Knurling is when you add the serrated edges to a surface to increase its grip.
That's a cool result. SU needs a poke tool to make this easier and quicker to achieve.

Love the poke tool, Rich. Is it from Blender?

No its all one piece. I used SUBD, JPP and Fredo scale Twist to make it, then SUbDed it to finish.
I can do a gif if interested. But on my phone just now.
