        Very clever idea πŸ˜„

        The Queen and Prince Philip had a not dissimilar combo vase made showing both of them - not readily possible with SUp's FollowMe, unless you make two halves and merge their meshes around a half-circle path [CurviLoft, EEby???, Artisan ?] and then merges two mirrored parts... It ends up looking wonky and poorly made until your brain clicks into 'negative mode'...

            The only example of when being negative is quite positive. πŸ˜„

              Very clever πŸ˜„ I must admit that I needed the hint about thinking negatively before I saw the profiles. 😳

                Wow, great idea! Now if I can get four faces on the four "sides"... Come to think of it: I might try this with a cube.

                  First attempt of a combined vase with Curviloft. Not bad, I just have to tweak alignment...

                      Okay, it's in the MakerBot now. Here's a better version. Still not perfect but quite okay.

                      You can also look at the 3D model on Sketchfab: http://skfb.ly/l4hf1c0ba

                          I really like the way you can get 'a couple' commemorated like this in one thing... and they are looking at each other too !
                          It looks like a very poorly formed thing, until you know the secret of how to look at it and then it's wonderful πŸ‘
