nonononono! not crease edges!

2 edges close by eachother in polys makes a sharp edge.

Or 2 isoparms in nurbs by eachother.

with crease edges you can't specify the hardness of the crease. You can either do a partial crease or a full crease, and nothing in between.

oh, I didn't know that. Still I (I personally) prefer the polygonal method.

first step
for polygon surfaces this is what it looks like, from here you can go to sub d or just smooth
