smooth tool

i desired a smooth tool for cheetah 3d ever since i saw a book called Cool Stufff and how it's made it said :1.Designers start to create a character by drawing an outline called wireframe its easier for computers to work with
flat surfaces than curves blah blah blah...... 2.To make the model look real surfaces are smoothed to take away the angular look of wireframe blah blah blah.........

btw that was the exact text in the book

i'm begging for you Martin, to create a smooth tool!

You know, Cheetah 3D could really use a Cube object ;-)

Can you name the author/booktitle please, I have some serious thoughts about this. If I could read between the lines it looks like a book about nurbs modeling. BTW: Cheetah3d is a polygon modeler.

@Pod; Last time I checked it did. What I think would be useful is if you could select a single polygon.

Last Chance.

Hi.
Can´t find a so named book: "Cool stuff and how it's made". So I gave up here pulling every little bite with a pincette out of you.
I think this stuff you mentioned is related either to nurbs modeling, flash or even worst to Illustrator stuff. Otherwise be more specific.

Here´s the ultimate hint for you building Master Chief:

Good luck.

With kindest regards
