Topology-subd help

[agelnick]

So I want to design something like the body and the handle ,anyone got experience on that? Im way new to this so guidance is necessary .

Also how can I design in confined space for example we have an area and we want to design in those limits. To be more specific imagine a log of wood 10cm x 10cm x 100cm and then the body gonna be sculpted inside .

You can always make a box that represents your "work area" using whatever units you need. You can set and object to be "see-through" by right clicking the object, selecting "Object Properties" and ticking on "See-Through" under "Display Properties" or hitting (L)Alt+X. You can also freeze objects so they cannot be selected and/or moved around.
