Tutorial :: Scorpion Production Workflow. I used Silo to create the basemesh. In general, I did not use triangular polygons. I think it’s best to construct using square polygons as much as possible, because it helps to prevent errors. I planned in advance a certain amount of what I would do and divided the polygons correspondingly. The number of polygons increases four times with each subdivision, so if you use a low number of polygons in areas where a detailed final image is not required, it will avoid unnecessary polygon divisions. After finishing the basemesh, it’s time to start the actual sculpting. If the specs of your computer mean that you cannot perform much segmentation, make effective use of techniques such as bump mapping. Next was UV unwrapping. For this reason, I recommend that you perform UV unwrapping when sculpting is close to completion. In this project, I used a free application called RoadKill.

There is one thing that you need to be careful of at this time. This is the hair production work. Grasshopper. Taller Grasshopper - Rhino (G3DM) Grasshopper - generative modeling for Rhino. Organic Modeling with Engineering Precision. Autodesk left SolidWorks reeling after purchasing Tsplines. Tsplines, for those who don’t remember is a technology that lies between mesh modeling and NURBS modeling.

It allows the worlds of 3DS Max and SolidWorks to merge a little bit. I believe that this is the direction of the future of CAD. More than “3D EXPERIENCE”, more than “the Cloud”, more than mobile, or SAAS , or cross-platform, all of that is either nonsense or IT infrastructure. It’s debatable whether any of that could be called innovative, but it’s surely not related to CAD in any way. There are two things going on in CAD innovation today that are related to CAD, and one of them is merging mesh techniques and NURBS accuracy. A quick demo of what I’m talking about with “mesh” techniques is here .

Of course mesh techniques are really just where direct edit intersects organic shapes. There are several reasons why I think these two worlds (subdivision/mesh and NURBS) need to collide. Organic Modeling: Precision Sculpting with TSplines for Rhino - Rhino Community. T-Splines gives Rhino users a way of exploring shapes easily and quickly in an intuitive way, closing the gap between design ideation and actual 3D model production. About This Online Course: The principles and rationale behind T-Splines will be covered, providing students with the resources to model shapes of any complexity as a single smooth, water-tight surface. Additionally, this intensive course will introduce techniques for working with polygonal and box modeling, direct surface editing, and local definition tools interchangeably.

Organic Modeling: Precision Sculpting with TSplines for Rhino will last 2.5 hours including multiple open Q & A sessions. With two instructors offering guided curriculum and continuous support, it is our goal to provide you with an in-depth and personal learning experience. Takeaways: About the Instructors: Ronnie Parsons + Gil Akos are founding partners of Mode Collective. 3D Conceptual Design Software.
