oh no, no arguing just learning and getting educated.

 

As far as I know LW,XSI are the only 2 app's that will subD a Tri.

All other apps turn a Tri to a quad

see around the out side of the eyes

So there rule is model 100% quads, witch is ridicules ,lol.

 

You can tell V4's Tri's where Quaded also.

 

I hate LW's UI and edgeless modeler and XSI UI so I refuse to model in either one.

Don't have XSI but will use LW's subD's.

I like modeling in C4D killer UI you can customize it anyway ya want,we even have a LW UI.

Wish we could just buy tools from deferent app's.

 

About draw the topology.

I don't model this way but in C4D ya can draw or lay edges over top another mesh and make a new mesh that way.

I know some use to do zBrush meshes this way.

I am guessing that is what ya mean buy drawing in zBrush.

If that is what works for you then I am all for it.

and it's still more or less modeling a character out of a plain / cube ya just using the zBrush mesh as a guide.

 

Always wanted to try Rhino for cars,mechs
