Complex design

Hello, I'm trying to design the silicone part of this grip and I've been having a tough time.

I tried using quad ball but it's just so hard to form the required shape. Is there a way I can loft a cylinder to a sphere?

Can you share your modeling approach by exporting the file as a .f3d and attaching it to a post?

I would design the overall shape as a T-Spine(form) and then split it apart into the individual parts.

Then I would refine the individual parts.

Hi! I guess you might want to consider a revolved shape and then use Non-Uniform Scale to deform it. But without seeing your attempt, I cannot say it for sure.

Many thanks!

I was able to use sweep for the shape. I used a straight path and a curved rail
