You might get some "fitting" radiuses for two different sized circles with different amount of vertices repeated in this circular way. But as soon the radius changes because of the profile you have to be very lucky to get some fitting vertices... The green marked may fit; but the red ones don't and also may produce… -

I need some advice from the SubD gurus out there. . . I've been struggling with the hood of this Lamborghini for a while now. The images on the left show the main problem area with smoothing errors. Any tips on how you would go about reinforcing the edges? I thought I struck gold when I saw Zigzter pose this same question… -

Thanks for sharing that link! I watched the entire 1.5 hrs last night and I was really impressed that he focused on technique than, we're going to build a (fill in the blank) today. I also read a suggestion of posting my attempts... So I get closer to what I was aiming for when I started using a cylinder with many segments…
