Modelling feet on bottle

[Anonymous]

Hello,

How would you model the feet on a bottle?

I was planning to revolve the profile of the bottle, then try to model the feet manually with the Form tools. But is there a better way?

I'd appreciate any ideas.

You can model this either completely in solids, or with the Form tools, but in this case I would not mix the two.

The "feet" look like a circular pattern of little wedges cut out out of the bottom of the bottle with generous fillets to round over all these sharp edges left by the cutting.

That is exactly how I would model this in solids.

That's great, thank you! Unfortunately I can only award 1 kudo.

Thanks again, I'll give it a go.
