Once, you are able to successfully align the multiple scans, the object should look 
more complete similar to the below screenshot. 

Take multiple scans of the object by changing the orientation. Once all the scans are 
complete, select all the scans and click the 

Combine

 button on the top of the screen. 

Select the 

Finalize
