... Meshlab and Voronoi?

it could be possible, to auto generate from SU using meshlabserver

I've had some success in the past, I'll have a play...

Though I might be unlikely to use voronoi patterns like this, the tuts are engaging and include some great tips in general. Nice work! I might use the stepping stones method.

How about use of "remove lonely vertices" and Vertex tools "merge close vertices" (with distance input) to help prepare the pattern?

I was introduced to this technique as I watched ixlrxli's videos, and so I tried it and liked it. It's especially helpful when using the move tool, as it's easier to snap to an axis. It also helps me eyeball proportions and line up drawings. I tried it and liked it.

Thx for the info!

About Meshlab : does it possible to make a "macro" for avoid to make numerous clics on the different menus shown on the video ?

If I'm not mistaking, that's exactly what meshserver is.

meshlabserver allows you to save a series of filters [that you select in Meslab] as a file and then apply that resulting .mlx on an input file from a command line script...

I have run these from ruby inside SU...

the PC version is better supported then on mac...

I was trying to think of a way to use flowify for this tutorial, but didn't come up with a 'product.' Yours is great!
