the mcclearen tutorial
 
ive got a question about the tutorial. i know its not finished but i have a quick question.

first of all, when i was trying this model, i watched the videos first of all about 3 times over until i had an idea of where i was going. then i started modelling (at the time i was in grade 12 and taking an animation class the first year it was offered)
and at the time i wasn't even at the beginner stage of lightwave learning (im still not)

but here is the thing, i spent probably 20-30 hours or more setting out the splines just how i wanted, and it still wasnt perfect.
since then the computer it was on got reformatted and i lost the entire model. the only copy left my old school teacher has.

finally my question....is there a way to surface the entire object at once, instead of one grid space at a time?
i just pretty much need a yes, know answer. as the work is lost for now and im really too frustrated to start all over again.

thanx guys. btw this is my first thread

hey dan, I'm afraid teh answer is no... you have to patch one portion at a time.

but don't give up, maybe someone will share the splines?
