yeah, it's possible. Simply duplicate your original, alter the duplicate.

Select duplicate(s), shift select original, Deform > Create Blend Shape.

Same process for NURBS.

yup yup.. I inquired about it today at school and it turns out it was an error on my part. apparently, I merged a few CV's without really paying attention to what I was doing. that killed it for me. Got it working. Thanks. user added image
