Week 9 - Deformers

  Week 9 - Deformers What Have I Learned This Week? Deformers Bend Shape: Found under Deform > nonlinear > Bend Deformer tools will create handles of different forms. The Bend tool will create a linear line handle to create simple bends based around the number of edge loops the geometry has. The more edge loops you have the more curvature the bend will have. In my example I created a tyre I created a Cube and used the Bend tool to create a slight curvature along with rotation, deleting all-by-type history and bend deforming again as a complete curvature. To finish off I made sure that all vertices have meshed together, also, I extruded within my rounded mesh to create a Type shape. Another feature to Deformers is that the handle's bounds can be adjusted, meaning the handle can be moved to only affect certain parts of the mesh. To test this I created a candy cane model by adjusting the Bounds of the handle to only create curvature on the top half of the Cylinder Polygon. Flare...
