Metaballs - Create mesh.

I have modeled something using metaballs.

  1. How do i remove the metaballs and just be left with the created mesh (end result, no more editing with metaballs needed)?
  2. Will any method work if i have the metaballs animated (if any soloution at all)?

Thank you.

You can convert the metaballs to a mesh while in object mode through the object menu “Convert Object Type” or with the shortcut Alt-C.
