No laughing please! I am so pleased with my very first model in Hexagon 2.2.
Had some trouble along the way with extrusions which were not symmetrical (should I have used another tool?)and the Loop function that did not always worked.
So there was a lot of fine tuning involved, but that is the way to learn I think.

I also learned that it is not a good idea to model with the Smoothing on. I did that when I modeled the tail and that messed up the geometry when I turned the smoothing off.

This dolphin definitely will not measure up any of the work that is posted here, but maybe it will encourage newbies to modeling that they can do a better job than me!

Thanks for looking, and especially NOT laughing!
