How do I start modelling a chair like this?
I would just model with subdiv and solidify modifier with a mirror modifier so you only have to model one side..
Sit in it and take a nice selfie, voila chair modelling... Waste your 3D time on something more entertaining, you will thank yourself.
heres what i did for mine, needs work but maybe youll get an idea off of this
Start with getting the fuck out of 4chan

It looks like shit, senpai. Graphics look like PS2.

thread is about modeling, not rendering, senpai

The model looks bad too.
I got a little carried away but I would try to use as many boolean operations as possible, while keeping the base shape as simple as possible. This makes things a lot quicker to work with and easy to modify.
Also dont listen to this thing >>515648

bah, I guess this makes more sense

holy shit just box model it with the holes, then smooth it and use soft select or lattice modifiers to add the curves.
>>515653
That creates imperfect curves.

You're dumb.

And you're an unskilled monkey. Trying to create the same faces that you'd get without using booleans leads you down a hole of way too much geometry to work with. Using booleans for hard surfaces will let you finish this thing much quicker.

> implying cleaning up 6 shitty ass booleans on an already smoothed mesh isn't too much to work with.
I'm old school - would just model half in low poly-mirror it, smooth and tweak it after with lattice deformers either way...30min to do?
