The help file tutes are suprisingly good at doing that... Under the help button, leads to these:

I would use "network":

then "mirror":

I found 'em - thanks

I could've paid more attention to high school French, but that's a slick process for building up a hull. In my case I have no rib or bulkhead sections - just making that part up - & I can see from jtucker's surfaced examples that they need to be tweaked into a more-smoother hull form.

Fun Stuff!

Thanks Guys.

Hi Jed, so actually ship hulls are actually a pretty advanced and difficult shape to tackle, to get a good one is something that will take some time while you experiment with the freeform surface creation toolset - just in general things that are all swoopy and don't have a lot of 2D nature to them tend to require fiddling with a much more advanced area of modeling.

So it's a pretty huge jump in difficulty level from the face plate that you posted at the start here.

That's true, but I'm not completely without experience. It's just a new program that handles differently. Most of the modeling I've done in the past has been wireframe stuff, not for appearances’ sake but for establishing cut paths & the like … & that was awhile ago.

This is pretty impressive software - it’ll dent my Guinness budget but I am planning to buy it.

Thanks again guys, cool forum too.

Hi Jed, that is a nice looking hull that you were able to cook up there, so that's cool!

looks nice indeed. :-)

Just a tip, try to grab your screen with ALT + PRINT SCREEN. :-)
It will only grab the active window and not your whole screen. You can keep things hidden like your taskmanager and current running applications.

Or use this cool script,

Peace,

Windows 7 has a built-in capture utility. "Snipping Tool"

Just clcik the start button and type Snipping Tool.

Indeed but as far as I can see he uses WinXP. :-)

Some progress ...
