thanks

Just had a thought…is it possible to extrude along a curve?
Also is there a way to merge to 2d shapes together through extruding?

Yes you can extrude along a curve. There are Bezier’s and NURBS. Not my area of expertise in Blender though. Because of the other ridges and finer detail I’d probably have a go at it with Subsurf. Not sure how to do that with NURBS yet, though it very well may be possible.

Thanks il give it a go
