      I still have problems constructing good quality proxies.

      I have to construct this sofa but I am struggling with the right shape of the proxy.

      can anybody help me to find the right shape?

                  Stick to very primitive forms then refine...

                  keep refining as you go...

                  i would have shared the file but i got this from SU...

                        Easiest thing to learn is proxy modelling. You're a natural at it too.

                          Thank you for your help. I am really not into proxymodelling... but result is quite well.

                            I think that looks like a fine result, I have problems with proxies too so appreciate how difficult it can be to get your mind around the method.

                              What is the difference between a Proxy and a simple 3D object?
                              State before subdivision ?

                                          πŸ‘ πŸ˜„ ...as expected with you - a great result
                                          Even the seams you've done - are these simple follow-me shapes?
