      I love creating models with Fusion 360, it is very easy to sculpt, shape, and scale. Other programs make it very square and not exactly what I want.
      - Kate Jovanovic

      Surface Modeling

      Create and edit complex parametric surfaces for repairing, patching or designing geometry.
