Starship Cone
-
Okay, this is my second question as a newbie.
Just getting started with rounded shapes, arcs, etc. I've attached the model in question and where I've gotten so far. I'm trying to mimic (not exactly, just in a rough sense would be fine) the front end or "cone" of the ship. But I'm unsure as to how to go about building this kind of rounded/funnel/cone shape in SU. Note: I'm not even necessarily interested in recreating the octagon hullform and integrating it with the cone, which is why I've started with just a circular hull. But I can't even get past building the cone at all and connecting it, so, that's why I'm here.
There are probably some other things I'm doing wrong and if anyone notices any I'd love to have them pointed out -- but the front end of the ship is where I'm stuck at precisely this moment. Any help appreciated.

Wow. That is . . . absolutely amazing. The simplicity of it all (after it's shown to you) just boggles my mind. I don't think I ever would've figured that out without the lesson.
Thanks so much, Gaieus.

Todd, "newbies" only need the basic directions and impetus at the beginning. After a few examples you will be able to discover "simple but efficient" solutions on your own.
