MonikaAA Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 Hi! I'm trying to create an effect similar to this: I'm a complete beginner and I'm doing it using vellum cloth with plasticity on a bend and pressing it down, however, I'm getting more of a crush-an-aluminum can effect instead of this. How should I go about this? Could someone please help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonikaAA Posted November 20, 2023 Author Share Posted November 20, 2023 Please could someone help, I'm wondering now if the vellum is just not the right tool... Is a very viscous fluid a way to go? This simulation seems to be very difficult to figure out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bricard Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Maybe you could just create the deformed shape and try a blendshape? This way you could get to the exact final shape you want by using all the nodes you need Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HM_2020 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) Far from perfect, but a good start - tough to get exact shapes without custom constraints per row etc...maybe some masks. squashMetalVellum_HIM_v003.hiplc Edited November 28, 2023 by HM_2020 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atom Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 That's a lot of fun to play around with. I had to give it a go using a font. ap_him_vellum_squash_metal_112823.hiplc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
