I created this model with a shrink wrap around the case of bottles. The shrink wrap looks to boxy.  How can I make the shrink wrap more “conform” to the bottles and caps without drastically increasing my face count and having to tweek hundreds of verticies on the mesh model?

Thanks,

Kenn

You may have some success using the Skin Wrap modifiers.

I doubt you’ll do it without “drastically” increasing the face count. A spline cage (based on the outline of the bottle(s) and the box) + Surface (or Edit Patch) would do it.

Not perfect -just a quick attempt - but you get the idea.
