Time for action – making the bow sharper
Just like you put a corner on the stern by putting the control points close together, you can make the edge of the bow sharper as well. Execute the following steps:
- Press 3 on the NumPad to see the Right view.
- Press the Tab key to get back into Edit Mode.
- Press A to deselect all the vertices. Press B, and then use the mouse to select the control points at the bottom of the bow, as shown in the following screenshot:
- Press Ctrl and 7 on the NumPad to get the Bottom view.
- Press S, X, and use the mouse to scale the control points in X until they are as far apart as the other control points in the bow, as shown in the following screenshot. Then, press the LMB.
- Press the MMB and use the mouse to rotate the view so you can see that the bow of the sloop is more pointed.
What just happened?
By scaling the control points at the bottom of the bow, you brought the point of the bow down to the bottom of the hull.
