I’m looking for a way how to extrude or inset shapes projected onto a cylinder but at an angled bevel (all sides). Similar to how when you extrude a sketch on a plane, it gives you an option to angle it after. However, on cylinders or other curved surfaces it doesn’t give you an option. The only way I found so far which is super time-intensive is to loft a smaller and a larger shape along the cylinder.

There’s gotta be a simpler way to do this!

Hi,  
Without thinking too much, I will use:  
Tools \> Project  
Tools \> Object Face  
Transform \> Scale \> Non-uniform
