Did you look at some tutorials and have tied to make anything new? Please post them if you have.

For the extrude tool by TIG maybe Divide your line! Right Click / Divide and make the same number of segments than your other curves! (generally the opposed curve) Recurve by Digssey for weld your Line divided but with keeping the number of segments!

Definitely being too hard on yourself. You should have seen my first models. You don't even want to know how many years it took me just to get to intermediate. Some people have a knack, I had to slog, but I also had lots of great help from the folks around here. I still can't do organics or advanced texturing worth a damn.

Curviloft has a low tolerance for messy operations and it won't work around geometry it sees as invalid. I've found that the key with Curviloft is to try and keep your operations in smaller grouped sections and don't try to get complex shapes in one big pass. Once you have each section worked out, then you can explode the groups if needed. Curviloft is great, but you have to do things nice and clean. Ramming together lots of elements with irregular spacing or breaks you will give you problems. It's also a good idea to use Curvilizard to weld your splines together when necessary. And be sure to save inbetween each successfully lofted piece.

I wonder if you are Anarchist "86ed" (see english idom) you've been kicked out of the anarchists , or if 85 other anarchists are boss of you?

Well, if you drew the cross section and welded the lines and arcs before using Push/Pull, you wouldn't need to soften the edges.

@anarchist86ed said: I think it's going OK. Given my inferior level of knowledge. Anyway... See the blue line? I don't like it. I messed up along the way and can't figure out how to straighten it up. Short of rebuilding the whole thing... Look at some of your earlier pics. It is not the line ( plane edge) but the flat area you have added some way and obviously the two will not be planar. You can hide that edge.
