mestela Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 Glad people find these interesting. More people should have a go! MORE! This was less complex than i expected, the circle wave previously gave clues of how to achieve it; Wiggle the circle so its a sine wave bent into a circle, then apply the same in y but with cos, and it pushes it into a circular spiral. Add a ramp to control width and radius, other stuff. All this will come in useful one day, I'm sure of it... http://beesandbombs.tumblr.com/post/126047111439/two-worms two_worms_v01.hipnc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamyog Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 (edited) http://beesandbombs.tumblr.com/post/64965072277/sketchy-thing I should have probably used another method to populate points to avoid the concentrated look around each face centres. sketchy_thing.hipnc Edited November 6, 2015 by iamyog 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mestela Posted November 14, 2015 Author Share Posted November 14, 2015 Had to turn away from the tv for a bit tonight. http://beesandbombs.tumblr.com/post/110755349929/dribbblepopular-dot-inversion-follow-me-on dot_inversion_v01.hipnc First did it as cheaty camera trick, then felt like that defeated the point of this exercise, and did it again in a wrangle. Both versions are in the scene. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazza79 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Hi guys, where do you get the knowledge to do these stuff? I mean, is it sufficient to take a VEX course or other things as well? I can read VEX because I have some programming skills, but how do I get the ideas on how to move things? I know is a strange question but this would really help... Cheers, Lazza79 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mestela Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 That's the point of this thread really. As you say, if you know any C-ish languages vex isn't hard to read or write, but I had to see a few examples in context to get a feel for it. Was lucky enough to get acccess to interesting production shots at work, but obviously they couldn't be shared. When I saw the tumblr blog that started this thread, and found they were all done in code via processing, seemed a good base to make small examples that'd hone my skillz, and be a good visual library for others. If you find a gif that you find interesting, post it here, I (or others) will have a go. The blog tends to post lots of variations on a theme, maybe try taking one of the existing examples and modifying it into something else. Best way to learn is by doing! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Follyx Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) Do you have a little time in the moment for going further or are you no more interested in giving such fantastic learning stuff for VEX? Hopefully NOT!!!. Really an awesome thread. Thanks a lot... Edited December 16, 2015 by Follyx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
