Sambo Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 So we just got these into our warehouse, and I'm bending over my back trying to create a render for them. What eludes me is how to recreate these kinds of bends and manipulation of a simple 3D rectangle. Can anyone take a jab at it or give me some suggestions? Thanks in advance :whistle: This is my train of thought: manipulate a rectangle....right? This is what I'm trying to create. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee PVA - Admin Posted March 17, 2016 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted March 17, 2016 The Deform tool should be able to do this, though I would model the top and body separately. First a bulge to bring the sides inward, then a bend to give it the desired curve: Quote Link to comment
Sambo Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 Oh my god it's that easy??! I was using the deform tool but didn't even think of coming in from the top. Some of the basics sometimes go right over my head. Thank you so much JimW! Life (job) saver. Cheers Quote Link to comment
