Are there any tips or plugins that can help me create this driver seat for my model? Here’s a picture. ![Capture](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/sketchup/original/3X/0/9/09ec81344cfabff4189b69b01f8daf2e9c2b7b7b.PNG) ---

As an alternate approach, you might search the 3d Warehouse for models that already have a similar seat, then look toward customizing it for your purposes. ---

Yes SubD and Vertex Tools will work fine. I am using **Artisan Tools** instead of SubD but pretty much the same. Depends on how accurate you need the seat and what it’s going to be used for. ---

I just want to add one more tip in case you are unaware. When I import a picture for reference this free plugin is a life saver: [Scale tool for Sketchup Plug in by RubySketch Free - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQWVQlfl1IE) (watch till 1:45) [Extension | SketchUp Extension Warehouse](https://extensions.sketchup.com/en/content/scale-tool) ---

Probably, i’ve only ever used Artisan myself, for something like this seat I would create a proxy like this (but better ha). ![20](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/sketchup/original/3X/f/f/ff9b88cf8de2686c8ab1a632ea939b1cc4052d37.png) Probably better if you can use quads with Fredo’s tools however. ---
