i'm creating a surface model, the boundary surface works but on evaluate curvature it appears red, is there anything i can do to fix this?

Hello Hazel,

It looks like you have some overlapping surfaces on the one side. The opposite side seems to be ok. When working on bottle designs, I find it best to work on 1/4 of the shape, then mirror after the shape is done. That is, as long as it is symmetrical. In this case, I'd cut away everything on the left side of the front plane. Then once you have the design set, mirror about the front plane and then the right plane.

  did you convert the shape onto a plane? or just 3d?
