Subdivision Surfaces: Overview

[sandheepkumarvb]

Nice!!

[wucolin223]

umm after watch the video, i just want to say... where is the subdivision surface button?

[chluaid]

thumbs up if you play desk bongos between each section

First time I ever see such a good presentation in a tutorial, you feel like looking at it like a show.

Even commercials I saw weren't that attractive. Well done !

[DonJMyers]

Thoughtful and quick video. Even though it is not technically about my software Lightwave 3D, everything he says applies.

Excellent tutorial - thanks.

I found this NXTutorial[.]com website to be a great resource

Great Video! Even though I am familiar with these concepts already, it was still really enjoyable to watch, and I learned a few unexpected things as well.

Your tutorials are the best I ever seen! Keep that good work please :)

[zEpicFailGuy]

So most of the human character uses subdiv. Nicee.

[ciarlond]

Nice tutorial indeed. Some questions: how do you convert to NURBS the shapes you create with SubD?

Is the result of the conversion as good as the initial data?

Can I get examples in iges format?

thanks

[SubzeroedMind]

What happened with your site guys?

[ninthjake]

I have watched a lot of tutorials about subdivision surface modeling but whether free or commercial, NONE of them have ever explained the concept of how smoothing works this well. I believe that knowing the technical details of any aspect of 3D is key to learning more and essentially to master that subject. This is hands down THE best explained tutorial about Sub-d surfaces out there and it's all free, thanks guys, you are simply the best :D

That mouse looks very nice. Tuto?

@d4v1dy this is suzanne!

[d4v1dy]

is this in blender 3d

[MrShoy]

@d4v1dy yes.

[39Mick0tf2]

@d4v1dy Just from looking at it, yes it is.

[avion85]

this is awesome!

high quality stuff!

[DrSchille]

Great tutorial! Very well animated and rendered with nice effects. It makes it really interesting to watch, even for those who already are familiar with the theories of subdivision surfaces or polygon modeling. Great job!

[f2dz]

Amazing tutorial, thank-you. :)

[hin089]

thanks

Where's the other voice actor? Anyways nice video, I didn't know subdiv lvls did that =P

[maggidude]

what programm do u used? blender?

...by the way...preety cool video :D

[pand0ras]

The monkey-head "Suzanne" is a part of the blender standart-objekts.

but here is no GUI to see. All animations are rendered out

[physicswagner]

Perfect!

[Daawaa]

brillaint!

[KevBoy3D]

Excellent introduction to subdivision, I'm interested in learning more about them myself.

I do wonder why catmull-clark is the most popular sub-div scheme, I've even read there are schemes out there that don't care anymore about how many sides your polygon faces have. Is this true? And if so, why does catmull-clark remain so popular? Easier to animate? Predictability?

[Hellblazzer26]

dud ehow do i subdivide?

[RichardLBartlett]

I learned most of this the old fashion way but I have to say this is fantastic. I'll be pointing people in the direction of your videos in the future.

[eraggo]

I must say that you have made little research before letting these videos out.

Great work, and as you have said (or kind of saying): "every vertex, edge or face effects every vertices, edges or faces near it"

Thank you for great work!
