If I want to retopo armor or hardsurface pieces, should I use quad draw?

DataDragon · Sep 2015

So I have been working on a few armor pieces in Zbrush, I want to retopo it in Maya. However, I'm not too sure how to go about this, is quad draw a good solution? I want to make the armor fairly inorganic looking.

Any tips here would be great!

could you show us some screens?
sometimes its faster to model the object from sratch out of a box... sometimes its faster with a retopo workflow...

Depends on the structure of the said armors, I guess. Sometimes I remove edge loops instead.
