Polysetin Kit used for Hardsurface Modeling

WilliamVaughan

I've had a few people ask me if the Polystein kit can be used for hardsurface modeling so I made these quick GIFs as an example.

what is this dark magic?

It was originally a tool set  designed to speed up character modeling:

But once I updated it to work with custom presets at users requests, (http://www.pixelfondue.com/blog/polysteinupdate?rq=Polystein Presets) it opned it up for  much more.

This video explains how to make a custom preset:

Let me know if you have any questions.

If I see things correctly, finally a tool that retains quads.  Makes me want to get Modo over Maya.

All the presets are all quad and it stitches all quad.

Does it make it easier to script, if this is a script such tools in Modo ? I never see this from the Maya community. I think the Maya community is a little, shall I say, lazier in this regard ?

I've never scripted for Maya but I would think this to be doable in Maya.
