Learn the fundamentals of Sub D modeling in Rhino 7 through this comprehensive tutorial that introduces organic modeling capabilities similar to those found in Blender or Maya. Explore how Sub D tools extend Rhino's traditional NURBS modeling approach by providing polygonal modeling techniques for creating organic shapes and objects with greater flexibility. Master the creation of Sub-D primitives and discover essential tools including the Sub-D Extrude tool for adding depth to surfaces, subdivision techniques for increasing geometry resolution, and the Reflect tool for symmetrical modeling workflows. Develop proficiency with advanced features such as the Edge Loop tool for adding geometric detail, the Crease tool for controlling surface smoothness, and the Bevel tool for creating rounded edges and corners. Practice freeform editing techniques that allow direct manipulation of Sub D geometries and learn to use the Stitch tool for combining separate Sub D surfaces into unified models. Gain practical experience with these relatively new Rhino 7 features through hands-on exercises that demonstrate how Sub D modeling serves as a bridge between traditional CAD approaches and organic modeling methodologies, providing designers with expanded creative possibilities for complex surface creation.
