RE: whipped topping

Do you want help on how to to design a similar shape or is this something i don't understand ?

In case you really want to design a similar shape, the difficulty is the irregularity, i.e it is a simple task to design a sweep along a "helical" spline, but then make it irregular is probably more a task for the X-form command and some time spent.

I want to design the shape not the air winky smile
I have played around with cone reworked with x-form. I'm not happy with result.

RE: whipped topping

What you need to do is take place whipped topping on a plate like it's shown in your picture, have it digitally scanned, and then download that scan into NX. :)

If you can think it it can be modeled

RE: whipped topping

"when I get home I can whip it out"? You're killing me on a few different levels, but I'll just chuckle at the whip cream pun.

RE: whipped topping

Friday chuckles were implied
