Mr Green pls finish this one.
I'll see what I can do, k?

GreenToaster

i mean waat s plugin

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,

. . . but, before the "new" thread, I'd like to share a little a few more things I've been playing around with . . . like dis . . .

I think it looks great, I especially like the front air dam. I've just started posting, I've added my first post of my latest WIP...

GreenToaster

. . . inspired by a velomobile . . .

This is supposed to be an animated gif file - does it work?

. . . and . . . another one - these sketches go really quick . . .

I think the mirrors give it a sort of insect-like aesthetic.

Those were supposed to be motorcycles, not airplanes . . . . . .

. . . something for my cat's birthday . . . meow . . .

Obviously, I'm not happy with the back end yet . . .

Hey Ray or GreenToaster, do you know how to use that smooth function. It baffels me totally.

[1] select the geometry you wanna smooze
[2] with screen cursor over selected geometry, right click, pick "Soften/Smooth Edges"

Thanks - I'm just having fun, I don't take this very seriously - I guess that's obvious though.

Thanks - I fixed the cabin - it was too close to the front, proportions were way off, but, it took 12 seconds to make it better.

Sub & smooth works great, I just can't figure out how to make it do much with concept car designs - superb for making happy creatures like "Sergeant Bunny" below . . . I'm having fun with it and will continue to work with it until I discover how it'll help. Certainly, it is fantastic for smoothing & so forth - like any tool, only as good as the user, eh?

Happy Sketching,

Brad

GreenToaster

Today is my last day of vacation so I probably won't be posting any more concepts for a while. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I did this one - the front fenders were shaped using the subdivide & smooth script. Obviously, I need a lot more practice with that tool. All the other geometry was done "manually."

Happy Sketching,

Brad
