In the 3D modeling process, a complete geometry can be generated by defining a vertical cross-sectional profile curve and revolving it around a specified axis. The cross-sectional profile consists of multiple connected cubic Bézier curve segments, which ensure geometric continuity while offering excellent editability. By adjusting the control points of each Bézier curve, the cross-sectional shape can be flexibly modified, enabling precise control over the resulting 3D geometry. This method is particularly suitable for constructing models with axial symmetry, providing an intuitive workflow that facilitates shape iteration and optimization.
