Struggling to find a way to make a coral branch, a tapered cylinder along a curve.  
Essentially like a cows horn, 10mm cylinder down to 4mm cylinder but bent on an arc.  
Should be a simple process but my brain is broken….

Check out the video on how I made this coat hook. Use guided loft.

Anyway, looking to model a simple “coat hook”. Wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how I should approach this with a Shapr mindset?
