Is there a way to add protruding geometry to a mesh? I tried using deconstruct brep to separate the grid I placed on my surface, but I want to add a series of spikes (which will be the additional 3d mass) to my surface.

Why use TweenCrv ❓

Both Loft components in the purple group generate the same surface, with or without it.
