Like others here, I am looking for a way to draw hatch patterns that conform to a curve.

 

For some strange coincidence, I have three projects where the client wants running bond pattern bricks on a curved path.  

 

I tried array, but the perpendicular lines don't stick to the curved line.  I spend about an hour tinkering with all of the lines but it ended up looking really sloppy.

 

I tried the .fas plug in from UrbanLISP, but that did not work.  DON'T SPEND YOUR MONEY ON IT!  

 

It seems like such a basic function, I can't imagine there isn't a system-based solution.  Surely architects, designers need to draw curved brick patterns from time to time?

 

Or are there other programs?  I am considering trying to stretch something out in Photoshop, but I'm at my wits end!
