Boolean tool to apply pattern to object

Hello,

I’m trying to use the boolean modifier to add the pattern of a puzzle to a 3d head. I’m trying to make a 3d head cubic puzzle. The puzzle applies to the object but once I smooth the object the puzzle pattern gets fragmented. Any idea what I could? Let me know!

Welcome :tada:

you might want to “smooth” the boolean cut object to the wanted degree of detail before cutting out from the original object…

The results also depend on how you used the modifier.
