Help making this 3d ornament
-
Did you look at this?
Although it isn't exactly the same, I think you could make the rounded edge in the same way I made the narrower parts of the finial.
-
I'm seeing a completely different shape than the rest?
-
That is funny because the shape I see in my mind is different than any of the examples.
-
To me it looks like leaf with two different larger bends and the edge curled over. I was only suggesting the finals I drew as an illustration of the way to get the main part and the curl on the edge. Maybe it's too hard for others to see the connection between what I did and the leaf. Should I remove it?

Thanks Dave. I hadn't seen that video. I have other ornaments to make and I think I can use those same principles.
-
Hmmm, with only one refernce image it's hard to understand the actual shape.
This is what I think...

I never know how to interpret roll eyes.
But yeah, the thing is shaped like the skp/picture I posted.

I was saying your .skp looked like this
smileyI roll my eyes at my shit joke.
Where's the 'hang my head in shame' smiley?

i think it's a peace lily or similar
as to drawing it, i used BezierSpline to trace, move & rotate to place the splines, then curviloft's Loft with the method set to Bezier curves -- Respect tangency then used the tension controls on the segments..

I started quite the debate. Thanks again for all the input. Some of these ideas I haven't even thought of. If you look at my second posting of the skp that is how the client imagined it to me - I haven't added the stem on the top like Solo did yet(at least I hope so - now I'm a little worried). If I'm wrong or my customer is wrong, I have a lot of ideas to work from. Unfortunately there's no second perspective image to look at. The coloring on it is more for effect than actual dimensioning. If you look at the coloring on the top lip, it suggests the same coloring on the back side - the blue on the left is just arbitrary coloring - festive, huh? I have another of the series that I could use some help with if you don't mind my picking the collective brain one more time. I'll post that one as a separate thread.
