Vellum Guide Geometry

Setup for a vellum simulation that follows a guiding geometry. This is useful when you want to blend a geometry into its final form, while taking into account self or external collisions.

Vellum Peel

Art direct the crack and peel of a surface geometry, using voronoi fracturing and a vellum cloth simulation.

Vellum Leash

Vellum wire setup that supports animated soft pinning on the tip and tail of the wire. Useful setup for art directing a wire simulation.

Soft Pin Constraints

Guide a vellum simulation by softly pinning part of the geometry to an animation. Control the softness of the pin over time with an attribute.

Tearing Cloth Simulation

Art direct seams in a base geometry, and use them as tearing points in a vellum simulation when under stress. Can be used for skin tears as well, ex. thorns growing out of skin.
