I’m currently having a little trouble making this blob of mine. It’s a collection of two series of curves, ones evenly spaced on the x axis and the others on the y axis. I think the trouble is in the front right of the blob, where two curves, one in the x series and the other in the y don’t quite overlap. Network surface can’t do this, and when I split the blob into a top and bottom and try to patch one of the hemispheres with the help of a circumferential curve, the surface it creates is far from where I would like the surface to be, which is right on the curves.
Do any of you have any ideas of what I could do?
I’ve uploaded the blob file and an image if that helps.
I don’t think that a single surface or even two are the effective way to solve this. you should try with several surfaces and srategies. what’s the objective of that model?
Ah, I didn’t even think of splitting it into more than two surfaces. Perhaps I could get something decent if I try making surfaces from just 4 curves each time.
This blob is the form of the ribs of an architecture project I am working on (I’m an architecture student). I want to diagram the mass of my project in addition to having the framework for technical drawings.
I appreciate you suggestion, Diego, I’ll try it out.
I just tried that out myself. It’s a get’s pretty darn close. I didn’t know you can loft using points, that’ll be something useful to keep in mind for the future! Thanks for taking the time to experiment with this.
