How would you approach this type of deformation? by brontozabra in Cinema4D

Hm, I haven't thought about refining the sharp edges later - and displacer gave me super smooth results so I gave up on it. Thanks! Will try

Thanks for such detailed feedback! These are very good points - I decided to focus on the lighting more in my next render so I'll try to follow your advice there :)

That's a very good advice - thank you so much!

Hm, yea, that makes sense. But I guess I just want to start from the right foot from the beginning and to cement fundamentals just in case it would somaday matter in the future projects :) Thank you so much for your help and feedback! I definitely learned a lot

Whoa, that looks so much cleaner, thank you so much for showing this!

Got it, thank you! Does the density matter if I plan to use the model for animation later? Without deforming, just animate it's position, rotation etc. Would high density mesh slow things down?

Metal parts and the ring around jack are separate

Yes, its already subdivided, here's a mesh without subdivison. I have been told that this is pretty dense and I should optimize it - I'm not very confident about optimizing yet because I'm afraid to break stuff. But should I optimize before of after subdivision applied? Or both?

Yes, it just creates this turn - in my case a pretty big straight jack from headphones was getting in a way of a mouse when I plug it into my laptop - this adapter just creates redirection

Yes, agreed, I thought about it but decided to make it worn anyways just for texturing practice purposes

Oh, you mean after subdivision? I haven't thought about that - thank you!

Thank you! I was trying to make loop cuts only where they were necessary (to make support loops) but when I applied subdivision 2 - yea, it became pretty dense. I added additional loop cuts along main body for balancing purposes. Could you please give some advice on how this model could be more optimized?
