      Hello,

      I would like to further round edges on the cubic shape. Pic will help, you see bottom half is nicely rounded, but would like to round it from above too / you can see I already drew curve...must merge...it is sth like a ship's point...thanks!

        You might want to check out the round edges by bezier plugin in the ruby forum, i imagine it can do what you want.

          First thanks for reply. I downloaded and installed, looked at pdf and tried, but it is not that straightforward and does not what I need to do / don't get me wrong, I'm sure for someon it is very easy, can I get some direct advice please? Thanks!

            just wondering, is this so hard to do really? I mean you can push that top down, but only to where the bottom roudness begins.
            Can't define other points to do it...

                It's easiest to get the prow shape before you fillet your edges - then you can just do a FollowMe to the whole shape

                    Borat, take a look at this very good tutorial created by Dave R, it should tell you what you need to know.

                      I did, thanks. but it is confusing getting it into my object...problem is drawing prow shape is very simple, also rounding edges, but not both as one affects the other...so if someone can spare a minute...

                        Borat,

                        You don't mention whether you tried Buzzer1001's suggestion. Did you miss it (or discount it)? It really works quite well.
