Hi, I try to draw a cell membrane with a sort of a 3D effect. I managed to do draw a 2D membrane by drawing a circle and a sinusoidal shape and then by generating the pattern along the path; then I copied shape, moved it one layer under and repositioned it relatively to the first layer. Unfortunately, in some places the circles are too far apart from each other which results in holes. I know there is probably a better and automated way to accomplish that. I attach the screenshot of my work. Please, help.

Perhaps "LPE Bend" is a better choice:
It works, thank you.
