Approaches to modeling a toothpaste tube

Hi all -

Does anyone have any experience modeling tubes (think toothpaste) -

I have managed to model one - but I am curious to see if there is a different approach to perhaps yield better results.

I did mine through a series of surface lofts with guide curves and knit to solids - this worked fairly well but I had a few hiccups such as the best

way to model the seal end of the tube - so I thought I would see if anyone that's worked on these types of models would be willing

to share a little insight.

Thank you -
