Question

Golf ball dimples

Has anybody modeled a golf ball? I've been trying to figure out the pattern on a golf ball now for about an hour and I give up. I know there are people who get paid good money to come up with the pattern for golf ball dimples. Just wondering if anybody has attempted this.

Hi Christian,

I've seen Vladimir Palffy model and render a golf ball.

Although he outfitted it with diamonds, I'm sure he could provide best practices on creating dimples.
