drawing the troll king

absolutely frustration trying to draw a 3D object in Vectorworks. Lynda.com is of no help. So tutorials from youtube. Basically no tutorials doing a polyhedra, which is what I need to do. But I learn all the other stuff, including drawing along the path and along the rail, which is kind of cool only still not the shape. This is actually more complicated than I thought. There is also a edit subdivision, only it doesn't work unless you create under the subdivision category.... crap.... I push and pull and manage to create a sort of the shape I have for the troll king, but not quite. Janna, who knows CAD as she did architecture in school will help me Friday, so we'll see.
