I’ve Been “Boxed”

[L i am]

I love where you are heading with this, very cool stuff, you have been very boxed indeed

@L-i-am Thank you sir. ️

More fun time stuff. Only three components. Drew the path for the upper twists directly on the globe. Fredo’s Tools on Surface makes short work of it. The most time was spent on the render side. Played in Twilight’s Deep Material Editor to get the effect on the globe.

I need to understand how you drew the path.

@ntxdave “Tools on Surface” allows you to draw on curved surfaces. Turned on hidden geometry which helps to keep things aligned. You just have to play and experiment to get used to how it works. The upper twists are 24 copies of one component.

OK, I just installed Tools on Surface but I am having problems trying to figure out how to draw things like you did. Any advice as to any tutorials or places to learn how to use the tool?

@tuna1957 Well, I am beginning to learn but I have a LONG way to go.
