How to model this?

Seems you can make this with only no?
There are only simple circular or ellipsoïd curves not moebius curves !
All surface are tensile straight planes between 2 arcs!Who are you and what have you done with Pilou! The Pilou we know and love would have been the first to suggest a plugin.
You could create the shape with native tools. You just have to approach it differently than you would with the various plugins suggested.

I have made some therapies against use of plugins!
I don't see any Bulge, it's only inclined segments between arcs
Scale tool is the key!
-
Not with the barrel bulge i.e. the curve from front to back........unless I'm missing something? I could be over thinking things as usual

Now remove SU6 from that old PC and go va-va-voom to v8

To me it looks like two intersecting eggs with ribs running through them, so there is curvature inbetween each rib.
Using native tools you could create the two 'egg' shapes, add the thickness of the ribs with the shell plugin and then intersect a series of rectangular boxes to create the ribs.

so there is curvature inbetween each rib.
I don't believe that!
It's just tensile structure between each rib
And yes after all structures draw an egg curve
-
That's how I interpret it........chances are I could be wrong though

We're making progress!Now, as Rich says, lets clear that V6 off your old computer and get you up to V8.
Maybe you need a virus on your old computer. This one ought to do the trick.

Ve haf yust sent you da "AMISH VIRUS". Since ve do not haf any computers and do not know how to actually damage your computer, dis Virus verks on da honor system.
Please forward dis Virus to eferyvone on your mailing list and den manually delete all of da files.

Weren't there some legacy capabilities in v6 and v7 that you don't have in v8? Free or Pro?
-
Despite the fact that I want not install the V8 free on my old comput and no need
V6 free has some advantages with files formats that V8 free has not more! -
You're right, Tim.
Pilou, you should have both.
-
I wasn't trying to stir up any trouble, nor give Pilou any excuses.
Now, as for the shelter structure. I would most definitely try it with native tools first. What I see is progressive extrusion, scaling and either, pushpull or followme ribs by copied loops. Otherwise, Curviloft for the volumes, intersect them and so on. Those fundamentals die hard with me.
After all, I am only a little bit swifter than a brick. -

But I have both but not on the computer linked to the Net!
97% of the files posted here has no need of the V8 for read them!

Thanks chaps!
