just think as a profile. the easy way is to make a grid, paste your jpg in photoshop on it, and trace straight segments from the side of the bottle. each point become then a x and y. in your code declare an array of number3Ds using this x and y, add a z = 0, and pass it to Lathe (reffer on tutorials page at away3d.com for more details on Lathe)
> Thanks to who coded Lathe and PathExtrude PathAnimator are too practical Glad you like them, funcky is when I wrote them, 2+ years ago, they where badged as gadgets. Seems times have changed :) They are very powerfull once you master them, the Temple demo for instance, is using mostly just Lathe and SkinExtrude. Just 728 kb of extrusion goodness!
