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.

Spider Web

Creates a spider web from guiding surface geometry. Recommend to do a few frames of vellum simulation, and then tweak the web to your taste with the vellum brush.

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.

Breathing Chainmail

Converts a surface geometry into a moving, breathing, chainmail fabric. Apply this modifier to any clothing element that needs extra BLING. This pattern was inspired by 3D printable fabric prototypes.
