This page is intended to help people that are trying to learn the process of surfacing a model in Alias that will eventually be used as a "patch" model, or converted cleanly into polygons.

People would create a model like this for several reasons. These reasons would include that need to export a model to "Flesh", or "Amazon Paint".

The model that is shown is one of the head from the ride film "A Bug's Life".

The process shown here, if followed with persistence, should be able to produce 2 models. One model will be a morph base, the other, a morph target.

Warning: This page assumes that the user has a basic working knowledge of Alias.
