Hi there,

What is the best & quickest method to matching these adjoining surfaces into one uniform isocurve grid?

Thanks

Hello - why do you want to do this?

I want to create a uniform paneling grid on this surface to apply a modular skin…

Hello - I see, for PanelingTools… can you post your file?

Hm - well that is not going to be all that easy- the pointy surface, apart from coming to a point, which is not ideal in itself, in this context, is only tangent along the top and bottom to the other surfaces, so you’l lose some definition.
Would it be OK to approximate with a single evenly parameterized surface and then pull the grid points onto your real geometry?

How did you produce the single surface? Sweep?

That’s a very nice job. I would check the following control points and try to make their vertical flow even smoother.
