can someone tell what would be the easiest way to model the curve on this table leg. I dont know how to get the corner as round as it is in the reference without mage the edge of the leg round too.

Probably its easy but i dont have that much experience. Thank you!

Table Reference

I tried it with the spin tool. The edge looks ok now but I dont know how to get the vertices back to the table leg in a proper way. Is this the right way?

You could build the outline, and then create the topology inside.

  1. Start with straight edges, and then bevel the corner vertices
  2. Add a slight inset (to keep space for beveling later)
  3. Build the inner topo-flow so it doesn't get in the way of other corners

  • $\begingroup$ that look very nice, thank you!!! But i can not inset like you, when i hit I it deselects my vertices and nothing hapens, the same whe i try to use the inset options, it just deselects everything. How to you build the topo flow, with the knife tool or with loop cuts and merge by distance? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Hey :). You need to fill the shape before inset: Vertex > New Face (F). $\endgroup$ Commented Feb 19, 2021 at 10:26
