Modeling a cave with full of stalactites
First of all, I want to thank everyone who helped me so far improving my maya skills. Great Forum. But now I have a new project: We are shooting a scene in front of a bluescreen, which should be replaced with a cave. Here is an image, so you can imagine: https://shrani.si/f/q/Mh/27N6p186/sta...-stalaktit.jpg
I modeled an rough stalactite. No problem at all, but I wonder, how I can get all those little curves which are on the stalactite. I am not the best one for shading and texturing at all, thus I thought, you could help probably...

Thanks a lot for the tutorial it was really helpful
Not it looks much better. But I have a "scratch" at one side... I think it is because it is NURBS...any idea how to "close" the scratch?
