How can I model fluid?

How can I model the pink fluid like in the picture below?

This is just for visual purpose. It should not move or have physics. Is this just extrusion?

extrusions/sweeps/lofts/freeform,etc...

Depending on the desired shape I may use a combination of all of those..

But is just a shape there isn't a special function for modeling fluids in Inventor.. Model just as any other shape of any other material.

hello @Anonymous ,

Like @mcgyvr  stated, you can model this multiple ways. I think the best way that would give you the most control of how you want the liquid to look is through freeform.

attached is my stab at showing how this can look...please note that I am not a free form expert...actually...this was my first freeform model! I am using inventor 2021, so I'm not sure if you'll be able to open my model or not.

Have fun creating!

Thanks @mcgyvr@ and @Casey.P for your suggestions. Freeform seems to be the key. Unfortunatly I can't open the example, because I use Inventor 2019, but thanks for the effort. I try it out.
