GIF is the collection of pictures that are put together in the series to for animation, its like filming a blossoming flower, with all the patients, we have to keep taking pictures from same distance and angel with movements happening in the object or zooming in the uniform ratio.

RHINO 7 = RHINO 5 PLUS SCULPTRIS

Rhino introduced the SubD command bar in releases 6 and 7. If you still have the previous releases (4-5) one solution I've experimented with is to bundle Rhino 5 with free art modeling software. Even though I have the Rhino 7 release, I can't load it on one of old laptop of mine, so I tried SCULPTRIS, freely downloadable from the web: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sculptris Files can be exchanged in .OBJ. One limitation of Sculptris is that it sometimes has difficulty importing complex objects. Another limitation of Sculptris is that the starting object to be modeled is a sphere, when instead it would be preferable to start from a cube. This is only a starting free solution, which can be implemented with other more complete artistic software.

Editable tween curve on surface or polysurface

History in Rhino 7 must be turned on, in order for the modifications on the input surfaces to affect the output tween surface and its corresponding curve intersection. The latter could be further simplified via the "! _RemoveMultiKnot" command, though that will destroy the history and also may cause the curve to no longer sit perfectly accurate on the surface/polysurface.

Match surfaces manually

One disturbing issue with "Match surface" is that it will try to transfer the 1st and 2nd row of control points to the target edge while keeping the distances between them relatively unchanged. This is usually great for the majority of users, because it's predictable and even usable in specific cases. However, there must be an option to "unclock" the aforementioned correlation between the 1st and 2nd row of control points and instead let "Match surface" adopt the same distances as the target control points. With that option turned on, the surface to be matched will become perfectly matched to the target one. To demonstrate the HUGE advantage of a potential "Adopt" option that I just described, here is a simple way to achieve the necessary correlation between the 1st and 2nd row of control points by "mirroring" the distances from the target surface to the opposite one. Lets hope that "McNeel" will consider adding such an option in the future releases of Rhino.

Loft magic

When it comes to organic NURBS shapes like that, nothing can beat the quality, simplicity and History-enabled modification that Loft with the “Loose” option provides. A good practice is to use profile curves with the same degree and amount of control points. I started by creating the round base by using the Circle command with the “Deformable” option and 8 control points. Then, I simply copied it a few times and modified each one individually by moving its control points in the desired location. I also used Scale 3D and Scale 1D to adjust the overall size of each profile curve. As I moved or modified each intermediate curve, the History-enabled Loft surface updated in real-time, thus it let me decide what changes I needed to make to achieve the desired shape. NOTE: In this example initially I used the “Normal” option of Loft, which is not a good way to do the shape. The video capture was interrupted for some reason and stopped far earlier, so you will not see how I then deleted the loft surface and create

P.S. At the end of my video you will notice that I forgot to improve the flow at the tip between the two split surfaces (easily seen on the curvature graph), which I did after I stopped with the video recording.

hi, https://grabcad.com/shawn.norbert-1 Once the dimensions are created , if you want to edit the dimesion just double click ( Left mouse button) and write/ label the desired text. There is another way for editing dimensions, use command # object properties
