      I need to make a shell of a car just a lil smaller. I need to make a car just about 1/8" or 1/4" thick all over... a kind of shell. is there a plugin to do this?

        Would ThomThom's "Shell" be the one? Somewhat like Fredo's JPP in the final result but allows a descaled form copy.

        I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

          I think it just might do it. having problems with it doing the body of the car. works on box or sphere.

            You could also draw lines marking the length, width and height of the shell, copy the geometry and scale it to those dimensions.
