how do I fill in only one of the sides on this mold?
I only want the text on one part of the mold, the other should just be flat.
Idk what I'm doing (obviously)

didn't work, I'm guessing I'd have to only select the recessed parts? which idk how do do without clicking all the faces manually.
plus the surface is curved so I'd have to make it follow that curve somehow?

I found this model: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1874217/files which has the shape I want.
Figured I'd make the negative myself. But the problem with this is the bottom is flat - how can I round it so it matches the top?

Let me guess, ur a nigger... not enough IQ to learn basic modeling.

OP asks for genuine advice.
Blender person steps in >>940727 and gives extra bad advice.
OP points that out >>940736
OP gets insulted by Blender person >>940747

Typical.

In addition, Blender person blames his ignorance on the race of the person asking the question.

You can try to delete only the recessed vertices and fill the holes with faces. It won't be perfect, but that will preserve the curvature better than trying to match it by hand.

Hide everything you're not working on with H and then go in from the side in xray mode to select the recessed ones to delete, unhide alt+H. After that, patch up the holes with ngons the best you can by selecting groups of verts and pressing F. Recalculate normals with shift+N when you're done.
ngons probably don't matter, but just in case select everything with A then go to face menu in the top left and triangulate faces.

Should give you the result you're looking for

Hey thanks for actually helping me, I managed to get a decent result but >>940741 was way better, exactly what I wanted so thank you very much lad.

But yeah I'm obviously completely new to 3D modeling. I really just wanted to make this small edit and get my colleague to 3D print this mold for me. The end goal is to make the soap in ceramic.
