Yeah normals are fine. I think I might have started with a plane and not a cylinder as I got used to modelling with polypen in C4D. So I created the shape and then did a loop tools circle and extruded back.
Yeah this is what I did as I can see there’s no thickness to the model. So I reckon it’s the loop tool circle that’s the cause the islands appear around that circle edge as if I’d marked a seam
