How to meake this wall?

Anonymous

Hello,
I don't know how to make this wall (the curved one, at the stairs)?
Any suggestion?
Does anybody knows the dimensions of those brawn bricks? (I need them in order to figure out the size of the wall..)
Regards..

Maybe the picture doesn't reflect it well but I dont see a curved wall at the stairs. I can just barely discern what might be a bit of a radius edge at the roof above-and the trim/ or gutter. Is this what you are talking about?

Auto Roof Tool would get you that roof shape and an angled wall (in profile) would follow around that shape to get you close to the profile element.

Might be better ways- I'm just a newbie but trying to be helpful.

No idea what the size of the stone veneer elements might be- guess is as good as mine.

Cheers

Ah,
Sloped wall cap. Simple, just use a roof slab as the stone wall cap and then trim the wall to the roof.

Also one more question: How to make those shapes around windows?

Seems to me there are window accessories that will do just that for the Quoins. For the trim, just adjust the window trim parameters.

And my suggestion is to model them with the slab tool, laying on the floorplan, then saving it from 3D window by the correct downwards view as a gsm object. Place it in front of the plain wall. You can also create a custom floorplan symbol opening the library part and editing it's 2D view.
