deform object
so, i need to model a number of sheets of paper, but they all need varying degrees of curliness to them... i have a flat piece of paper model (took me ages to make :p) that I want to change without changing the size of it's actual dimensions...
would i smooth bind it to some joints....? er...not sure if i'm making much sense.

Probably the easiest way to create a page is to draw a cv curve the shape you need and duplicate it and then loft between them.
