new in 3d modeling. my first project.

is there some easy way to make spikes? I tried to use "polygon/star"-tool and I managed to make lines, but how to add some visible radius to them?

well.. I have lot of questions, but lets start from this one.

Can't you just create a cylinder and then copy it with a slight rotation?

There should be tools to help you make it faster like array tools etc.
I don't know rhino but many 3d modeling software have such tools.
