How would I use the array modifier to duplicate this pattern all the way around the top and bottom circle faces? Whenever I try to use the array modifier, the pattern just copies next to itself. Its hopefully going to be a grenade. Ive added the blend file in case anyone can help. Thanks

Go to edit mode and with the shift select remove the top and bottom circles. Press P and select Selection

Now in the object mode select the mesh and Press Ctrl+A and select rotation & Scale press F6 and click location tick mark.

Now in the modifiers tab add 8 count and press search bar and type Circle Array and your done.

    $\begingroup$ Beautiful vase you got there ;) You don't need this addon if you use object offset but it makes things more straight forward I guess. $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 6, 2018 at 11:02
