How do you create this??

#1

Hey guys, was just wondering how you would go bout modeling the weave pattern as close as possible to this picture: http://www.stupiddope.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/orange-crush-mini-amp1.jpg

Any old tutorials (ive looked, but nothing significant) or techniques would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Create spliunes, adjsust the form into some sort of wave, loft, clone, move, rotate.

Thought so. Thank you.

You can also try just to model one iteration of the pattern with polys, and array instances to form the rest of your mesh.

#5

Yeah. But that’s just too perfect. Most of the weaves are all different. I’ll try both and see what looks better, thanks.

You can always apply some noise or FFD deformer, maybe even displacements to either each spline or the whole pattern. Using referenrecs instead of instances will give you nore options on indiviual splines.

Yup, will give it a shot.
