Introduction
Shell Factory Script
- This script creates Shells of various shapes & styles.
- The shells made can be very realistic.
- There are a wide variety of other shapes,
- That can be made by tweaking the settings.
- Mostly based on Curved & Spiraled objects.
- With settings for extrusions/details.
- This script is very Powerful & Complex.
