How to round narrowing line?
-
Hi there,
I'm looking for some solutions maybe plugins with help me to round narrowing lines.
Round corner wan't round prettily when two lines meets in sharp corner.
now
after round cornerI want to achieve this effect:
Have you some idea how to made that?
-
Is that really what you want? By your photo I would think it'd be something like the attached pic. Round corner can do the rounding--as long as the faces are not too small. If too small scale it up temporarily for the operation. But for what you show in the model I don't have a plugin. I think it might require subdivision and smoothing operations.
-
If you do actually need a completely smooth transition, then you'll have to use SubD or Artisan.
Here's a quick basic shape to play with.

Thank you Hieru,
Quad modeling will be what I need. Your model is very ditailed. do you use some other specyfic plugins to speed up the proces of quad preparing? -
I think the model is deceptively detailed...it only took a couple of minutes to create using the Line tool, Offset and the Split Tools plugin.
For more complex forms I use Quad Face Tool, Vertex Tools, Split Tools and Zorro extensively. Solid Inspector is also handy for finding unwanted faces and internal geometry.
-
Some users believe that RoundCorner could help in creating a control mesh for subdivision.
So I started a discussion here.
First thing is to understand how this would work in some general cases, though simple.

Thanks Fredo,
I think if you would like to improve something in plugin, maybe is to allow change diameter of round corner when two lines (maybe selcted) will be approaching each other.
But use round corener to construction for quad faces method is also atractive. Unfortunately I heard yesterday about quadfaces, and my knawledge about this method is... hmm poor
