Looking for an advice - C4D modelling a particular organic shape (beginner)


#1

Hi dear 3D community,

I’m new here and trying to model my organic shaped project. I have a sketch and a floorplan (already in curves made in CAD software but 2D). Wondering which way would be smart to model it (please see my uploaded attachment).

My idea is:

a) use default shape capsule and somehow (how?) shape and deform it to the form I want. Floorplan and sketch (as an elevation) will be uploaded as an underlayer.

b) Using floorplan and sketch (elevation) as an underlayer as well but using curves as a particular horizontal sections in different heights defining shape and afterwards using tool “Loft Nurbs” to cover it?

What do you think? Is this a way or is there more smart option how to make my required shape?
(design on uploaded pix is a draft, still not final shape - just looking for a way how to model it)

Any help I would appreciate, thank you in advance guys! :slight_smile:
