   Thanks so much, this is a wonderfully neat procedure. Always like your direct instructions. I make text files of tutorials for reference to follow later. here is a a sample of hour tutorial. Maybe this will help someone else.

   Here’s another ‘speed tutorial’. Still loving the format :)

   In this video we morph an object from one shape to another using two slightly different techniques.

   add cone and sphere on top of each other
   add shrinkwrap modifier on sphere with cube as target shape
   click on view in edit mode to see it there [triangle]
   edit mode select all scall up to fill the cone
   in object click “make shape key” in Shrinkwrap modifer.
   this will make a shape key from orig shape to shrink shape in “shape keys”
   _____________________________________
   cube and suzzane on top of each other
   subdivide suzzane 3x, apply this
   duplicate suzzane and move to the side or another layer
   add shrinkwrap modifier and target the cube.
   apply and add another shrinkwrap modifier, target the cube again
   in edit mode, enable display modifier.
   switch to local view with slash key?
   select the center vertices of eyes
   move this to top using portional edit tool key “O”
   now move the rest of the mesh into a cube shape, use box select
   scale a little to make it a perfect cube
   object mode- apply shrinkwrap modifier, check that both objects have same number of verts
   slect both objects suzzane first cube next in shape key select “Join as shapes”

   “shape keys”- find in- object data
   “enable display modifier” -find in- object data
   “box select” Key O [not zero]

   I love this guy’s tutorial style. To-the-point and no-nonsense.

   I also chuckle every time I hear that voice, because I imagine it’s Err of the Mooninites, giving the tutorial.
