Intro to RWX Modeling
Example Scripts
page 3

These three scripts show how you can manipulate parts of a model


Start with a simple sphere.

Now the fun: pull various vertices to new positions using translate. You can make a guess at which vertices are which on the basis of their coordinates. The vertex with the highest x value, for instance, will be on the right side of the model...
