Somtimes it wont work if you draw the cube on the canvas first then adjust the deformations etc.


Try simply selecting the cube3d, then adjusting everything, THEN drawing it on the canvas.


I'm not too clear on what your problem is, but see if this helps.

Hi Kruzr,

Which X Y Z selection did you use on these two steps? I think this is where the problem is. I couldn't get it to work either.

4. Deformation:Apply Rotate Y 90, SSkew 100
6. Deformation:Apply Flat-75, Click Unify.
