I'm after some help lofting between curves on multiple planes - in particular, lofting from one closed curve on one plane, to two different closed curves on a plane higher.

 

Has anyone had experience trying to loft from one curve into two? Imagine a loft that splits like a 'Y' shape.

Can you attach your model ? (export as .f3d)

You cannot really do tis the way you've described. It will require some manual re-work.

 

As such I could imagine lofting this in the T-Spline environment just to the same point you have in the image in your post and then patching in the missing section manually.

Peter's advice is probably best, as it will afford an opportunity to tweak the product.    While you could try creating overlapping loops,  Loft each peek transition discretely, then combine the products, Fusion would likely be stymied by closely conforming surfaces.

 

Glenn, could you spare a few words about the process for extracting topo lines and introducing them in a useful condition into Fusion?
