      Dear Friends,

      I am modelling a silicone foil pack and I am almost ready to pull my hair out. This is the desired end result

      and this is how far I managed to get

      😑 😑 😑

      Would anyone have any advice on how to create a more natural-looking end of the foil-pack (inlcuing the wrinkles and etc)? Perhaps there are some plugins that could be used?

      Any advice would be appreciated.

      Thanks in advance!

        For the wrinkles you would need to use Artisan to sculpt them.

        To make the knotted ends more real try Vertex Tools and use the scale/rotate to distort them.

        You could do it all in Artisan but first you need more geometry.

        An easier way would be to just use a texture to trick the eye and save yourself the need to sculpt.
