modo401-retopologisingA new tutorial from Vincent Rice shows the capabilities of modo401 for reformatting badly-tesellated CAD models.

modo 401 is an excellent tool for ‘re-toplogising’ 3D CAD data. That is, the re-purposing of hi-density mesh created on export from NURBS-based engineering programs into a form (subdivision surfaces) useful for high-quality stills and animation rendering. Here’s a simple tutorial to show how I usually approach this task.
