Egg-Like Geometry

Anybody knows how to create an egg-like shape geometry in Revit ?

I create it in Microstation and import into Revit as mass, but no luck,
it changes to octagonal shape.
see attached images for info.

any help is much appreicated

revolve half of an ellipse.

If you need a little more control check out this video. I explain how to build radial geometry on reference lines:

Hope that helps,

Do you want me to model the chicken too? :mrgreen:
Just use a solid revolve and you are done.
