Hi Stephen, kpovmodeler does bicubic patches as well (I'm not running Windows).
but you can't have a background image, like in Blender. And stitching them
together might be quite a job.
Those blueprints from Titanic are a bit rough. Are you interested in my arrays
for Deck D?
I use 1 pov for 1 foot.

Cheers
Ton.
