      Just looking for some C & C for my little project.

      I am looking for help with a couple of things. One being the follow me tool. I find when I make my shape and then extrude it in a circle the whole shape ends up being made of individual lines segments. Is there a way around that or should I just live with it? Second question is about how blocky the model looks. I guess I should have used more sides on my circles? Any recommendations on that?

        Only thing that comes to my mind is more segments in your circle I sometime use 200 for a fine finish, hope this helps
        PS Nice model

          I like to use the "Engineering" style for projects like this where you have lots of small faces - it makes the model more visually appealing πŸ˜„

            Thanks for the replies guys.

            Anyone have any idea how it would look rendered? I am thinking about trying kerkythea soon. Is it better to have more line segments in circles or will it look fine the way I have it now when rendered?
