on your own to see what works best for you. In the following exercise I will show you my
hard-surface technique, which relies heavily on the Clay and Form brush to build general
shapes, the Trim brushes to plane the shapes down into angeled surfaces, and the Clip
brushes to further carve away more complex forms (Figure 10.38).
Figure 10.37 The highlighted brushes are used in the creation of hard-surface forms.

Figure 10.38 This image shows a hard-surface methodology. A general shape is created, then carved and shaped using
the Clip brushes.
