  • is it a primarily polygon based program, or can you use NURBS modelling to create more complex surface, and double curvature.

    I use ALIAS at the moment, I was wondering if this has any of alias's capabilities if i want to do quick sketch models without spending time on there

  • @Bananananananananify

    It is a polygon based program. No NURBS.

  • awesome tutorial, thanks!

  • No problem, glad I could help.

  • In many other programs, this shape could be derived from a simple primitive that is subdivided

  • Easier to just teach 43,000 people the wrong way to create complex shapes

  • Thought I would share this with you!! Great job! I tried to post an article I wrote based on this video, but it won't let me. Look for it at wikihow.com!

  • ive been using maya, 3Ds max, and Auto CAD for about 5 years and i have to say those are much easier than this. You cant even create a sphere right away.

    intersect is one of SU's most powerfull tools! Check my videos, I think you might like them :)

  • cool

  • hi, i am trying to make this curved objects following this video, then the simlest thing to do doesnt seem to work for me. i wonder if anybody can give me a tip!

    when i try to make a surface by connecting lines with those two curved lines, they simply make lines withouth a surface as it shown in the video.

    how can i make the surface?

  • very nice and useful. We could call it curving the curved surface "Double Curvy Surface"
