Hi All

I have just started using MoI 2 days ago, am new to 3D modelling was trying to use Blender but not getting very far.

a friend recommended MoI, so here I am, I was looking through the help pages and came a cross the merge function, I think the merge is what I need to solve a problem I have with a model I'm working on, but I have one problem how do I deform a plane in the manner that it shows in the help files? put a curve into it.

I have an object, that's shaped like a crescent moon, it was extruded from a curve so it has a flat, parallel top and bottom and vertical 90 degree walls I want to give the object a ellipse cross section. But can't figure out how to do it.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers, Steve
