This flower isn't really going to move much, but I found that very boring and decided to look into something I've never tried before. I decided to use dynamic curves and play around with the forces and I have found the effect it gives lovely, but hard to control. I realised after spending hours on rendering that the curves don't animate the same in the real-time view as they do when they are rendered, so I had to playblast my way to this. All in all it came out lovely and the petals or tentacles look almost alive. I plan to use this technique on a few more things to turn my set more alive and interesting. I will add most of it when I've finished animation though so you wont see any of it any time soon.
I feel that I have learnt an awful lot this year through pushing myself to the look I want for my major project. I am definitely getting closer too the look I have in my mind every day, and I feel a bit more confident in my work as well. So confident that I can actually see myself working with this soon. It feels good. Still so much to learn though.
Emelie, Thank you for stoping in today and thank you for your comment. Good luck on your major project! This is a creative and fun adventure and I will try to follow you thru your journey. Learning is a fun!
