Gabriella_A Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Good morning ... I know, looong time no post... lots of things to do... also my first daughter I am not very experienced in modeling... but now I need to model a capitonnè leather panel.. for an interior shot of a shop... I've searched the net for a tutorial (polymodeling i suppose) but neither... I've also used a displacement map, but I don't get it right... someone can help me , please ? attached is a photo sample of what I need thanks in advance Gabriella Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabriella_A Posted June 9, 2008 Author Share Posted June 9, 2008 Thanks for the reply... I also know this tutorial... but the panel is sligthly different from the one I have to model.. and modeling with patches is really a pain for me... In addition the tutorial here is not complete... does not show how to create the seams between the bottons... I was thinking that with box modeling or polymodeling was simpler and with minor polycount... no one know other methods?? thanks again GA http://www.cgarchitect.com/resources/tutorials/smoke3d/tutorial7.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattclinch Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 paint a nice displacement map, then just tessellate a block and use the displace modifier. hell of a lot quicker than cutting and shifting geometry - you'd be here all week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jophus14 Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Check out this link. It shows how to model the leather buttons. http://www.cgarchitect.com/vb/28881-modelling-furniture-4.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriella_A Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 Thanks to all the "russian" method is interesting... but quite complicated... finally I've drawn a displacement map.. quite nice result...but not for closer look. No one has other modeling suggestion? thanks again Gabriella Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antisthenes Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 if you make/find a displacement map of this please post it for us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriella_A Posted June 11, 2008 Author Share Posted June 11, 2008 This is the final displacement map I used... (i made it from scratch) totally seamless... worked quite good for me, but I think that for closer looks a model shoul be better hope that can help someone GA if you make/find a displacement map of this please post it for us?

Guest nazcaLine Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 gabriella, check my post in the link jophus14 provided...there i attached some pictures of my method to model such an object, it's far simpler than the russian method and it works quite well, look at this theater view i just finished, it has some cushion panels: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
