Good work and gift :slight_smile:

How did you convert the 2D ( lines) into 3D shape with sub-D?

@sciensman most is done with append face and drawing quads. It’s in fact simple, but a bit tedious in Rhino to accomplish. After the basic layout is in place, the flat shape is thickened and refined.

I understood a little. You filled all the 2D sketch with append face command (with close points that is a tiresome work) and after the sketch was filled completely you did extrude.

Okay

What about the sharp tips of the leaves and branches and also the variable veins on the leaves?
