Tutorial 13 | Animating in Loft Nurbs

By Tutorial 4 Comments

As cool as sweep nurbs are, they lack the control that loft nurbs have over the profile. Loft nurbs fall short when it comes to animating the splines like sweep nurbs can, so in this new tutorial, I’ll show you how to combine the best of both.

Using a loft nurbs but having the control of being able to animate splines in.

As always comments are appreciated.

Tutorial 11 | Modelling a Pin Art Impression Toy

By Tutorial No Comments

The inner creative and explorer in each and any one of us has a rule when it comes to pin art impression toys. The rule is, you have to pick it up and see what your hand (or any other object near by) looks like extruded in pins.

A recent project of mine lead me to modeling one of these awesome gadgets and in the process I had a few learning curves which I thought it best to share with you guys.

Will get back to part 2 of Extruded Text tutorial later this week.

Hope you have fun and as usual, subscribe to the feed, comment down below and have a great time learning C4D!
