    I am new to modelling and am trying to create a coputer mouse in C4D. I can get a nice extrusion on a spline with beveled edges but my problem is to curve out the end of the mouse. I can not make the corner points into Beziers, I think because it is extending in 3 axis, kind of like trying to get handles on the corner of a cube. Does anyone have any suggestions to help, a different start point possibly or even if someone can help me be bold and has a 3D mouse handy 🙂

    you won’t be able to extrude a mouse from a spline. HyperNurb modelling is much easier for such things. 3DKiwi had a mouse tutorial a long time ago on C4D Cafe but I think it was lost in their server crash. He does have an example mouse on their rebuilt site (you have to register but it’s free)
