    Hi all,

    I am wondering how can I create a surface in rhino from an already existing autocad drawing? I have a hull design consisting of plines that represent the sections, sheer and centerline, now I want to use rhino to turn this into a 3d surface so I can render it.

    This is just the hull, I also have all other parts of the ship, like the deck, the superstructure, cockpit etc all drawn in autocad, and would like to render this with Rhino.

    If there is some tutorial, could you please point me to it, or if there are better ways to create a rendered image (right now experimenting with a demo version) please let me know.

    Thanks,
    Arvy
