        Hey Pilou! Jean-Franco, thanks a lot to all of you, I really appreciate!

        Soapskin is less predictaable for me right now since I never really used it so far.
        Same for Ferrari.

        But Jeez! It's good to be back on this forum! ๐Ÿ˜

          If it's not in V6, audience will be very few! ๐Ÿ’š

          And maybe with a simple Follow me it's possible to make something? ๐Ÿ˜„

            It's gotta be more complex than what I eventually did I think. But it's gotta be possible! ๐Ÿ˜„
            By the way, I think you may have had this question before but I never looked for an answer for I lack potential uses of this technique but how do you do your colorful patterns?

            This definately makes your images pop. I think it's called style! ๐Ÿ˜„

              Yes, you have not but you can "save as V6" with last version that you use! ๐Ÿค“
              Very useful today when there are so many users' versions working in the same time!
              V6, V7, V8, 2013 ...and future! ๐Ÿค“
              Some free or pro versions have many advantages that other have not!
              Or new versions not installed! ๐Ÿค“
              My favoriste it the V6 ...so thanks by advance for the next time for other users...and me to save as V6! ๐Ÿ‘

                Thanks a lot! It really helps me a lot.

                Box, I think it took me 3 minutes after I saw your wireframe to come up with something decent:
                canopy.jpg

                Just drew 3 lines and converted them to a classic Bezier (another French guy isn't it? ๐Ÿ˜† ) curve, rotated/copy this curve 90 degrees, added 2 arcs with the arc tool and let Curviloft do the rest (What would I do without you Fredo6? (Could it be another French guy??? ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ˜† !)).

                Here's the .skp in case someone would need it.

                  Thanks for the Random Painter plug-in!

                  I think Chris Fullmer actually is a super hero and he makes great watercolours too!

                  I updated my post with a v6 skp! Got it! ๐Ÿ‘

                        Nice!

                        I get the tools on surface part pretty well but maybe you could share the steps you used to do this in Soapskin? Just to let me (and the other forum users too) know!

                        Thanks a lot for this already ๐Ÿ‘ !

                                    The difference with Soap Skin & Bubble is the skin is linked to the vertex, not to border lines, so you dont have to draw hypothtic border.
