Hi how would you model this chair?

 

i made a cylinder and extruded and chamfered, but was having trouble with the back part with arms.

 

any tips would be good

 

thanks

Its not an easy shape. The best advice I can give is to poly model it but keep the model SUPER simple until youve really nailed the form.

check out the Vizcorbel tut's I think the model a chair that is similar (actually quite different) but does show the method

poly box model it - like tom said - get a real simple cage with the right proportions and a turbosmooth modifier.

add edges using ring and loop to iteratively add detail where you need more definition.

yes..poly modeling could do the job !! I've made several furniture models http://www.mr-cad.com ....to make the back you could even try chamfered box and FFD to get something similar but not exact.
