Lofting Analysis with Rainbow Gradient (UPDATED)

[Speedster]

Started on my 194 foot Steam Yacht "Medea", and needed to study the very complex lofting, always a challenge, especially in SolidWorks. The SW "Zebra Stripes" evaluation will drive you nuts!

Then I remembered the KeyShot 7 "Rainbow Gradient", in the misc. materials folder.  That plus a simple orbit animation did the trick!

Got a couple of hollows to smooth up, but not bad considering 18 lofts!

Rainbow Gradient is a great material for analysis of many complex shapes...

Updated the video above, and I'm quite pleased now with the hull lofting.  Starting on the details.

Cool thing, Bill. Looks promising.
Looking forward to follow the progress of this model!
