Warped surface

hello,
can sketch-up draw 'warped surfaces', like for example a ships' hull ?

thanks,
RJ

Yes. Do a search here on the forum for 'ship', 'boat', 'hull', etc. You'll find plenty of examples.

I believe there only Plugins for volume by Tig, by SDmitch

Better to see these links and import your model inside some free ones!

Delftship free is a good one!
