Unsymmetric Loft - only solution to loft half and mirror?

samuel_rayworthsamuel_rayworth Member Posts: 2

So I've been trying to create a forward fuselage for a RC aircraft. I've got a decent amount of time working with lofts, especially with make wings and alike. however with this particular problem I'm running into the loft generating unsymmetrically, I've been playing around, trying different sketches, matching up each sketch. doing guides and connections. is my only solution to add more guides, or do a half split down the centreline then just mirror the surface? I've browsed the forums but I've yet to find one applicable.

Here you can see the problem in question.

the problem seems to be amplified when i use guides, when guides are not selected in the loft panel, it's still there but more subtle. Any help is appreciated, Just looking for the most efficient solution.
