That is indeed one way of doing it. But in cross section is straight from the top to the edge. TIG’s solution (applied to a scaled up copy) produces a rounded profile, which looks and would feel better.
Scaling it up removed the corner gaps, however there is still gaping when I try to erase any of the “X” lines and those lines are still creating a slight bump (as you can see in picture). The corners also aren’t “smoothly” transitioning as well as I’m hoping for.
Curviloft seems pretty close to what I’m looking for, however it seems like I need to sign up and pay $15 a month to a website to get it unfortunately. (I may if no other option)
I downloaded soap and bubble and am trying that now. There seems to be a little bit of a learning curve and can’t see some stuff in the .gif. from Aaron. It looks like you click skin twice, but when I try to do that I get an error saying i need to select 3 or more edges after the first click and it won’t let me bubble up until i create a group with skin soap. I’m gonna do a little more research on it.
I’m also hoping to 3D print this once I get it figured out.
So i got it working up until its supposed to inflate, however after I click “bubble”, type in pressure and hit enter, nothing happens?
Does this ever happen to you? Any suggestions?
It looks like you save or something before, but I cant see what it is on the .gif
Edit: Got it to work! I was only doing 50 pressure (the amount they do in video) and wasn’t seeing anything. I went up to 1000 and started to see real inflation!
