Tongue Tied

I created the following image of a tongue in Photoshop. I really wanted to model it in 3-D, but I wound up wasting way too much time.

I don't have a lot of experience with organic modeling, so I was hoping someone might be willing to share their thoughts on how they would approach this modeling task. I'm not looking for a detailed tutorial or for someone to model it for me; but if someone wanted to provide an overview as to how they would go about modeling such an object, I would be very grateful. I particularly had trouble trying to get the groove in the middle of the tongue. If I can understand how to create this form, I think it will go a long way toward helping me in future modeling tasks.

Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

I just hat to take fast go at it, its not perfect, but I think it is something to start out from!

It really needs some tweeking to get it up to the level of your picture tough!:smile:

I guess the best way to do it is to use your image as a reference image and import it into the blueprint object and start with a box that you tweek so that it looks like the shape of your tongue.

I started out with a box now, that I added geometry to the places that I needed geometry and tweeked it on freehand looking at the picture. I have previously made a tutorial on how to use the blueprint object if you haven`t used it before.

You can find a link to the blueprint tutorial in the cheetah3d Wiki at this link: http://www.cheetah3d.de/wiki/index.php5?title=Modeling it is called blueprint.
