I need your help - Modeling a mouse

hoang_dang-van — Mon, 17 Mar 2025 10:51:00 GMT

Hello, I'm modeling a mouse specifically the glorious model o Mouse.

im having trouble making the shape of the mouse.

I made some kind of surfaces and i want to cut through the mouse that is surface.

Does anyone know how i can do that?

Should i use loft, should i do it another way?

i'll leave a screenshot and the .ipt file of the mouse (im using the inventor 2024)

and also a picture of the mouse.

You can use the Split tool (body mode).
If the first Extrude was in surface mode, a better command would be Trim Surface.

Hi! In terms of the cutting surface, I would use Revolve, instead of Extrude. It will create a more curvy face for a palm.

Many thanks!
