I mean if you had to recreate this form, what would be your workflow? what plugins you might use? i want to replicate this form as part of series for practise where i look at an image and recreate the form to understand skp better

You need to wait for the file to upload before posting your comment.

What version of SketchUp are you using? That will inform the options for modeling whatever it is.

Complete your forum profile and update the outdated stuff.

I’d start with a large box and add edges to define the facets. With the radii on the corners I’d probably use Curviloft to generate the facets.

Put that in your forum profile and update the information about your operating system and graphics card.

> Hey there. if you’re reading this, someone probably asked you to fill in your profile. The point of a filled profils is that we other users can quickly help you. a vague profile often results in us asking a wide set of questions. so here are the steps to follow : When you’re done, scroll all the way down and save now, where to find all those informations ? License type. what type of plan did you get ? the Free plan ? a Pro plan ? are you a kid using Sketc…

here. that way it’ll take you a minute.

Yes. Outline the edges between the facets. Like these.
