-
Last Modeling with NURBS Tools
We will start by utilizing NURBS tools to create highly accurate and detailed last surfaces.
-
Last Modeling with SubDiv Tools
Next, we will explore SubDiv tools, which enable a fast and efficient modeling workflow.
-
Last Customization with Grasshopper
Finally, we will work with Grasshopper, learning how to customize lasts based on individual client requirements using an algorithmic approach.

Last Modeling
This last modeling course is a game-changer for anyone looking to delve deeper into the world of digital design and high-quality footwear creation. Throughout the course, you will master the fundamental techniques of last modeling. You will explore the advantages of SubDiv tools for rapid modeling and learn a more precise approach using curves and NURBS surfaces. You will develop the ability to create curves and surfaces that perfectly define the shape of the last. This course is an excellent opportunity to refine your skills and create professional-grade 3D last models using cutting-edge tools and technologies.
