Hi y’all! I’m not new to Shapr, but I’m definitely not a veteran. I’m making a spear and I’m wondering how I can fill the space in which i made? I made this by splitting the original in half and then angling it and then flipping a copy around.  
What I have tried is putting a much bigger rectangle around it and then trying to subtract it in everyway possible. I’ve tried using most of the options, I just can’t seem to figure it out. Any and all help is appreciated!

Loft, Sweep or maybe something else. Hard to understand the geometry from your photo. If you can share the project maybe we will find right option together.

Do you want me to share the project iteration link or a separate .stl?

Got it. Now I see the geometry.

So you want to make it solid, like fill it inside?

It has so many artifacts and gaps/holes in the geometry so it wouldn’t be easy to fill it up. Maybe better start over from flat part you splited and rotated. Was it some sort of vector image or something else?

I had made a sketch of an image that I imported in, then I made all the details and then I rearranged it into what it is now

Grate, can you share that sketch or image?  
Also can I upload your file here so other members can take a look?

My thoughts for now.

- Need to be prepared body with required form, but without texture
- Texture from the sketch needs to be projected on that body.
- Make texture from projected edges with offset tool.

ive never used the project feature before, would I use the image or the sketch for the decoration to do so?

Yes, you can use sketch for that. Or vector image converted to sketch.
