I wish I'd seen this Sub-d primer when I first started messing with them ;-) I've also added this is GI image created created and rendered in Modo 201 (out in March). Also shows the procedural texture engine and displacement mapping (the Modo logo is the only image texture). But the main reason I'm posting this is that the image was created by the CEO of the company, Brad Peebler. It gives me a warm fuzzy feeling when the managment of a company can actually use the product they're selling! Best; Dan

I loathe it when the managers and CEO say things like lets move product. I perfer a company that is run by designers and engineers who know the product intimatly. I like that site get a lot of helpful advice and it is nice to see what the people who really know what they are doing are doing.

The wit of a misplaced ex-patriot.
I cheated on my metaphysics exam by looking into the soul of the person next to me.

I don't think a manager needs to know the internals of everything his people do. What is important is that he understands the needs of and/or the result on the end user in regard to the product or service that's being developed ;-) My boss isn't exactly a 3d graphics genius, but he does support me very much in the things I do for him. He's more into stuff like video editing and anything to do with the television business and running the company, and high-end security business. But when it comes to 3d graphics he doesn't understand too much of it except that the end result of what I make for him always looks great :P However to come back to the modo topic, the pic looks interesting :) looks like some good quality graphics. The topology brush sounds like a very interesting tool btw

Nice looking washroom, but I question the logic of having a cactus in there. BTW, I wouldn't use a cactus as a back scratcher any more than I'd use a thistle plant for that purpose. (Usually getting stuck by either can cause a rash.) I'll second that it's pretty neat when a company head actually uses a product. The real question is whether the guy uses it enough to find bugs.

"but I question the logic of having a cactus in there" Sounds like California. Rich people in CA LOVE to have stuff in their rooms that common sense states should be a hazard, lol. (from what I've seen) All but one of the artists listed on the above site (in "Modeling Galleries") is using ZBrush for all their sculpting work, good to see. ;o) AgentSmith

This looks like a hotel washroom, though... Only a hotel would put a cactus there. A proper bathroom needs orchids or vines or ferns and one great big washbasin, not these itty bitty public-usage overdesigned coffee mugs. But a nice renderer and nice lighting. :-)

A proper bathroom needs a hot woman to hand me my towels when I step out of the shower :-P
