Tire Sculpt

[danmst3k]

I've recently been trying more hard surface type sculpting. Here is a tire I was messing around with. Starting to get a better feel for the tools.

With the self cleaning grooves it looks good for mud/snow.

I've only been using 3d coat for 24 hours but this is exactly the kind of thing I want to be doing with it though I'm completly puzzled by how you get the hard edged geometry on your model. Any helpful advice or tips greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Kev.

Thanks guys! Kev, you should check out the PDF tutorial by Izmeth Sideek in the 3dcoat main page go to tutorials/free tutorials/voxel tutorials then look for the revolver. It really opened my eyes as to how to go about sculpting the hard edged geometry. Also there is a great tutorials by Abnranger. Look for a new one on the pose tool. Mastering the pose tool is definitely the key to this stuff. The trick is in the way you go about selecting the area that you want to modify. Hope this helps.
