Our 3D backhoe model is taking shape. Progressing past the initial block out stages, we're starting to finalize the hard-surface pieces of the machine. In part 3, I'd like to cover the creation of hydraulic lines and the advanced shrinkwrap technique for cutting construction lines on smooth shapes. Though given that I'm predicting this a month away, these topics are subject to change.
This complex model is a collaborative effort between instructor and Citizen members. The idea is to build this crazy thing together! If you're interested in contributing, please jump over to the Forum Thread to learn more!

Blanch, do your work buddies know about the DOG project here?
@theluthier Yes the Cab has a heater and air conditioner. The main console facing the loader has a large vent then there are other vents below the seat the come up in for corners with the Trim most likely
I can almost see the blue light changing to yellow and red according to the grades
It is difficult. The Cab tapers towards the back end.
If it was meant to have a modifier for the curve?
Very very difficult
I signed up for the Cab as well.
his details are awesome
very difficult in modeling
Exactly
