I'm a HE Chris please spread the word
Or were you reffering to the car as a she...?

I noticed that, too.
Notre however that in many languages Marian is a girls' name. know that most of these names of Latin origin have both male and female versions but they are not always used. Like Andrea (which is actually of Greek origin) is a male name in Italian for instance but is female (in this form) in most languages.

So never mind the "slip" by Chris

OK.

On a side note, I am also often taken for a woman by foreigners for my name. In our language there are no genders (like he or she) and many Indoeuropean languages have "a" as a female gender ending (on top of all, "Csaba" is a name of Turkish origin).

Ah well...

So I am watching this and can't figure out which plugin he used to get the first extrusion. The profile follows the shape in two axes. Any ideas?
Pic attached for the shape I am referring to.

Ha ha ha, I was thinking of how he protruded the profile to the left along the shape. Egg on face here...

Lol...it happens
I'm pretty sure he doesn't use many plugins so when in doubt think of the deafult tools.
