Lotus flower petal mesh

Hello

 

I am trying to create a 3d lotus petal from a closed polyline and an open polyline touching the vertices of the closed polyline.

 

I am happy with the 3d drawing as i have used plan and side view reference material to get it right, the problem i now face is how to create a mesh from it? I would like to sweep along the entire closed polyline at the top, and use the bottom line as a guide to create a curved petal shape.

 

Is there any way to do this?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Best wishes,

 

Berance.

 

(using Autocad 2013 Mac version on a mid 2010 macbook pro, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo).

I'm not sure exactly which shape of the petal you want to have, but here is my way:

If you are more familiar with Fusion, you can do this in Fusion.

Could you please tell me how you went from your drawing to the actual petal. I have tried every way I can think of to make the drawing into a petal.  Photo enclosed.

 

Thanks.

Sorry, but I don't use Fusion and cannot help you.
I'd suggest you to ask your question here:
