Rendering issue

[Telvak]

I was making the pumpkin tutorial and made a mouth that I can't seem to "close to make rendering surfaces", as the tutorial states. I added a picture, any help would be greatly appreciated since all my previous attempts ended up with some grotesquely weird results.

 

I really hope someone can help.

Thanks for your time.

You really need to start with the basics and go through the booklet that came with AM. AM is a patch based program that makes solid patches out two or more splines joined to form a four or five point patch. You have a continuous spline with more than five cps. That alone will never make a rendering surface. Who ever wrote the pumpkin tutorial assumed you knew what a four or five point patch is. There are several basic spline tutorials in the New Users section. Do a search for them, complete them, and then try the pumpkin again.
