Re: How The F*#% Do I Model This? - Reply for help with specific shapes - (Post attempt before asking)
Just a tip is to keep the "base mesh" if you so call it, as lowpoly as possible, the more lowpoly the easier to cahnge the shape. -

For the lowpoly it depends on how close you can get to the object. Normally these holes and the small gap won´t be part of the lowpoly geometry. A normalmap can be used for those details. -

Is this suposed to be a lowpoly wire or a hipoly cage? -

if you are baking this down to a lowpoly, wour edges are waaay too tight there. reference this for help -

You have very high density, is that your lowpoly? or do you use turbosmooth? I keep my meshes as lowpoly as possible when doing highpoly so its easier and faster to change and not as much to mess upp. If its not your base mesh plz post it easier to see the edgeflow then. -

Aside from inevitably tight/thin edges, I don't see the problem. Do you mean for the lowpoly? Or is it not sub dividing correctly? -

If this is going to be a bake your approach helps also creating the lowpoly model so you just need to delete some edges and et voil -

If you need these holes to be real geometry i would suggest to sudivide once to get a mid poly object and use this as a base for the lowpoly creation. -

You could just create a simple plane, add enough subdivisions to it and extrude the border edges down. Then you form a nice shape for the lowpoly and collapse the edges that you don´t need to hold shape. -

if you run out of ideas try to model it in lowpoly first and then build up the needed harder edges of the subdivision cage from there on. I actually modeled this shape 3 years ago but its way to shitty to show :D
