Thanks Kelly, I have forgotten what the client brief was but it is radical. I fought with the massing, still a tad high sheer. Like all my past designs, I would like to touch it up one day. It would be difficult to model, you need the input to be so free flowing like they do with CGI animation these days. Some of the new animated characters seem almost living. I think the process to model animated figures involve a physical sculpture which is laser scanned in. The ultimate Yacht design CAD system would allow us to handle virtual clay, maybe fair out the flow. Probably require VR gloves for a direct connection to the stylist. Until that, the CAD models are somewhat translated form the designers vision.
