Anonymous

Hi.

Could any one advise on how to create a Bull nose roof like the one below.





I would also like to create some feature bricks like below for the same project and am not sure how to go about it with out creating lots of walls.



I am a first year student so please be gentle..



Regards.

Rob,
They say the only bad questions are the ones you never ask

1.Roof, one method is to create a custom profile of a section of the type of roof in your example.

The custom profile will not give you the corrugation. I would check out the add-on Objective. It is free for students, as are all add-ons. Just saw that there is an update to Objective in /viewtopic.php?t=19658]this post.

2. For the corner stone their is a Quoin library part in the wall extras folder. I have the US library, it may be in a different place than the international one, set the library to Search to find it.
