In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Kurt, awesome and totally INSPIRING work. It must have taken a long time to put those models together, everything seems so perfect. And to think that they started out in your own imagination is pretty incredible. I have one question for you: Do you do most of your work in NURBS, poly, or sub-div? What do you prefer??

Well I start off in nurbs to block out the shape and proportions then convert to polys and start adding detail using split poly. Then I convert to sub-d to add and pull out detail.

The final model is poly so i can smooth bid and have it render faster.

glad you like my reel..
