I'm not sure what this is supposed to be - I started thinking about a 3 wheeler and then it sort of morphed into this "thing" . . . there's always a next one . . . hit and miss is part of life - keep going . . .

Happy Sketching,

Brad

Thanks - I had a "decent" front end on the last one, but then I began messing around w/FFD (which I hardly ever use anymore, but it's a fantastic tool).

Here's something else - if you look at the number of triangles you can get an idea how quick this concept sketch is . . . three or four minutes?

Do vegetarians sit on leather seats?

. . . here's another quick idea . . . something a little different . . . oops, I need to smooth out the rear window of the cabin . . .

Happy Sketching,

I've never used it - I'll try to find it and check it out - thanks for the suggestion.

GreenToaster

Found the script you recommended (finally) - got it (finally) - can't rip the gigantic smile off me face as I use it . . .

THANKS for the suggestion!!!

GreenToaster

. . . wow . . . this is amazing . . . I love it . . . why didn't someone tell me about this earlier . . . (ha) . . . now I am beginning to figure out (finally) how people get those silky smooth models - it's cheating . . . but I still love it!

GreenToaster, I think you should start a new thread now called "My Cars have a completely new Look!"
(this thread has enough pages after all )

well for ur cars i think this plugin is great but i m using it just for few parts only once i applied it on the entire car.
I don t like it because is messing the corner instead making them more soften.
I preffer making them in normal way.

Could we agree each method has advantages? Hope so.

Consider it "done" - thanks for the suggestion. Interesting you made this observation b/c I took the time to look through each post of this thread last weekend - I think it's time to move on to something new, something fresh, something that represents perhaps a new level.

Thanks for the suggestions - happy Sketching,
