Modeling with NURBS

The second way or method of modeling is with Nurbs. Nurbs is a easy and simple way of modeling. However it is not used for modeling in game engines but it can be converted to polygons.  Working with Nurbs is a quick and effective way of creating pots, glasses, bottles and etc. Here is a pot i made experimenting with Nurbs.

 Using Nurbs



To create my pot I used the the line tool under the curve list. I then drew a simple outline of half the pot. It is essential that the line is attached to the center point of the grid. For the revolve  to work.




Once I had finish drawing my line I could now revolve the curve . Under surfaces there you should find the tap revolve this will revolve your curve creating  your pot/object.


The revolve however creates a hollow object . To give it some thickness you would have to  draw an  inner line.
