How to use Loft\/Blend to create curved side faces between dissimilar profiles?"},"content":{"rendered":"

Create a duplicate profile either of first or second profile outside the blend area. If you duplicate first, offset it near the first profile only, and if you duplicate second, offset the profile near second profile only. Use 3 profiles to create the loft\/Blend, this will create it as curved and tangent to all three profiles. You can then remove additional material created by slice.
