Hi, im new to 3d max, im an architecture student, and i need to create an ellipsoid, which has one ellipse shape in plan and a different one in elevation. i would like to intersect both views and generate this shape. I tried the lathe modifier but it gives the same ellipse in top and elevation..
Thanks in advance..
