In this tutorial we will learn about merging curves and how it is a time-saver while making symmetric curve shapes.
Symmetric curves have many applications – but they are difficult to create without this technique. XSI has a symmetry mode that will make the other half of any curve that you draw. After you have these two curves, you can merge them to create a perfectly symmetrical shape.
Topics covered in this lesson:
Using Symmetry mode to mirror drawing actions to produce two symmetric curves
Merging the two curves to make one new curve
Tweaking the continuity of the new curve
