Thank you for the models guys - It makes a lot more sense now.
Still finding a few issues but I think I just need to try things and learn from my mistakes.

Thanks Oli, I think that all makes sense. It seems that it is the little details that turn this tool into something really powerful.

Thanks for the advice.
I hadn't actually made any changes to the model just added it to the thread but I will note for next time - thanks

Hi,

I have just started to use Artisan and thought I would follow the thread on here and try to work through some of the basic shapes to get my head around the tools and functionality.

I have done a quick test of a mug and everytime I apply 'subdivide and smooth' my mug looks like it has suffered a small degree of fire damage

I undertsand this will purely be down to myself and the way I have modelled the mug, but was hoping someone could give me a few pointers to why I am encountering the problems that I am - That way I can learn a bit more about the tool.

Thanks,

James

Hi Guys,

I was wondering how you would go about modelling a golf driver, I haven't got a specific one in mind but it is a fairly complex shape and I am intrigued to see how you would go about it.
I was hoping you could outline what tools and plugins you would use to create the shape (mini step by step) and also some guidance on how you would go about adding the details such as driver face etc,

I have added a club purely as an example.
Thought this might be an interesting thread to see if people would come at it from a different perspective and to give the more novice users (like myself) an idea of process and the exact tools needed to carry it out.

Many thanks, James
