Figure 15-7:
The mirrored
boat hull
If you're happy with the results, attach the mirrored copy to
your original boat hull half. After looking at the hull, I wasn't
happy with how narrow it was so I scaled it a little to make it
wider. Don't forget to weld your vertices! This should leave
only the top rim as an open edge.
Note:
The Border sub-object button (number key 3 on the
keyboard) is a great way to find any pesky open edges
you might have!
Obviously we can't sail away in our boat if it doesn't have any
thickness to it. Right now it's paper-thin and has no interior.
Fortunately Max includes that wonderful modifier that I love
so much — the Shell modifier!
