Wow ! 8) This model is really good ! What modelling technique did you used ? Subdivision surfacing ? The only thing wrong i see is that the edges at the bottom of the model are not so smooth . Other than that, absolutely fabulous ! :) I'd love to see a screen capture of this one in the modeller . litst
That one of the things I really like about Subdivision, your control mesh stays very simple, yet you can achieve such complex and smooth, organic modeling with it. One issue is to know how to smooth out edges. A few closely placed vertices will save you sanity. At the bottom of the idol for instance, in the wire frame, you notice the squared areas. Very dense in the center, and although you cant see it from head on, recessed inward. This gives you those smooth beveled rings at the bottom of the finished model. Very nice model BTW!. :) - James
