Using the Edit Spline Modifier to Change the Shape of the Ngon
Now you need to move the vertices of the circle to shape the torso. The Edit Spline Modifier lets you move the vertices and shape the curves of a shape.
Move all the vertices into their final positions and shape the curves until your torso matches the one shown below. Take your time with this portion of the procedure. Learning to shape curves with 3D Studio MAX requires patience, but it pays off almost immediately by reducing the time it takes you to create the complex 2D geometry you need to create 3D objects.
