Need Help with Train Roof

Mistro11 · 15 Apr 2011, 00:02

I'm trying to model an R26 NYC subway car. When I got to modeling the roof, I am stuck on how to get the rounded top to flow with the shape at either end of the car. I attempted a push/pull but the front faces of the roof are at an angle. Can someone help me solve this? Thanks in advance.

Here's a pick showing one end of the car.

You just need to reverse the process and create the rounded part of the roof first then "slice off" the angled portion of the roof by intersecting the roof with a plane and deleting the unwanted portion.

Thank You very much. It worked.
