Model a freaking lightning bolt

Anonymous — Fri, 09 Nov 2018 01:29:11 GMT

I have been attempting to learn how and model this lightning bolt and it is driving me mad

I would really appreciate some help in learning to do it cuz I have tried to create by sculpting a face and extruding, by using a triangle and a path to sweep it, sketching and extruding just made it square ughhhhhh

it seems so simple but it is driving me crazy I just have to learn how please help

you can google the lightning bolt name and find the image if need be

I attached the picture I use as a canvasmy kryptonite

It looks great is there any way for me to get the model in my fusion 360 to deconstruct the process

that was indeed helpful I didn't even consider looking at the design that way

also I didn't know you could loft from a face to a point

can you loft from a face to a line? just curious if so how

Nope, Point is sort of unique, if not a point I think it has to be a profile, solid or surfaces.

Surfaces will take two lines, but not a profile and a line.

Pleased you got it...
