I'm a model maker for consumer products. Until very recently I used plastics, clay, wood, various cast synthetic materials and hand tools. Now I do it all on the computer with Rhino and soon with PowerShape.

Well, it depends what is meant by results. In this case, any hand made model needs to be translated into injection molds for production, which means that in any case, a digital model needs to be created. In the past, my model was used as a reference for a digital modeller down the line (or a team of them). However the hand model was usually more perfect than the end product.

Now that I do the digital model, I have more control over the finished item, but I'm still not quite as skilled as I would like to be.

The best results as far as a good looking model (as oppsed to the end product) result from a hybrid, part hand made, part digital parts printed by a rapid prototype machine. Some forms are more organic, and lend themselves to hand tools, and some geometry is better suited to the way the computer draws things, particularly things like lettering.
