Reply To: Workflow for creating hatch and screw holes in a curved surface.

Everybody a big thanks for reaching out!

I have ended up with a combination of suggestions.

1.    I first applied a Boolean to cut out the hatch hole in the remotes body mesh.
2.    After the Boolean I cleaned the topology.
3.    I duplicated the outer edge of the cutout and separated this into a new object for modelling the hatch.
4.    Then I modeled the holes and placed the screws.
5.    A little bit of scaling of the hatch and placed it into the body.
6.    A bit of proportional editing was needed to make a better fit.
