      So i was making this model, (supposedly a cafe).

      The process involves creating a cube,then rotating it's top or perhaps the roof at a 25 degree. Resulting to a twisted box. Then I Soap Skin Bubbled the sides of the cube to obtain a more smooth curve.

      Now my question is, could I make that curved face into one plane so i could use round corner to all sides? And even the roof?
      Below are a couple of pictures of the cube with SSB and a cube with a rounded corner.

      I want to have a cube that is twisted and with rounded corners.
      Could you guys help me on this? Thanks a lot!

            you might be better off making the rounded cube first then twisting it using fredoscale.
            i'd have to be at my computer to try it out though..

            [edit] yeah, try doing that ^^^ instead..

            [download from the link at the very bottom of the first post in that thread.. titled 'FredoScale 2.0h.zip'

                Here's another approach using EEbyRails to make the base twisted cube shape...SimpleTwistedCubeEEbyRails.skpSimpleTwistedCubeEEbyRails.png
