Modeling paper
-
Hi,
I have this assignment for a stage design for which I must draw my inspiration from this:
http://www.constanceguisset.com/index.php?/scenographie/le-funambule/My client really wants to have paper stripes falling from the ceiling and rolling on the stage randomly and making waves and whatever crazy random shapes paper does...
I can think of a way to do it using curviloft for example but it's going to be very time consuming modeling a few stripes...
Hence my questions to you guys: do you think of a better/more simple way to model this...Thanks for checking this!

idea before sleep...
there's lots of curvy lines in draw_metal then use TIG's vector puller,
and I'd probably use Fredo's Taper scaling as well...

johnHi! Thank you very much for your help!
I ended up doing something quite similar to what you did with curve maker.
I didn't know of vector puller so I duplicated my curve and used Curviloft to make the junction between my two curves (longer...).Here's the result after a little more tweaking, populating a circle with two different instances and placing three different colors spotlights pointing up:

Thanks again for your dedication and have the nicest day!P.S.: How would you use taper scaling?

Hi,
Sorry to bother you again but I can't seem to find the plugin you're mentioning...
Can anyone point me to this vector puller?

Thanks a lot driven and TIG!

sorry,
thought I'd replied to say it looked great... must of forgot,
I was just 'short-handing' the Fredo Scale's http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?t=17948#p144180ability to taper anything.
