Thanks Rich, quick contour and occlusion render from Modo.

Design!

Cool look with the edge contours included!

Thanks Guys! Yes, I like the illustrated look of contours. :)

Last test with this one, example of using flow on the results of a flow....

Cool PDF 3D!
Is that a theater?

Thanks Pilou!

No just a random set of shapes.

Flow to a Toroidal Knot using bemfarmers' excellent script. Thanks bemfarmer!




Rendered in Modo:

Cool pattern! Just imagine trying to model that one directly in place in 3D...

- Michael

Cool image!
Like Topmod Model! http://code.google.com/p/topmod/

Holy cats Danperk!! That thing is incredible!

Thanks Mike, not skill, just trickery. ;)

Great Flow example!
I've got to try one. I do have Alibre and Keyshot 2, but it only takes .bip format.


The toroidal knot script is about 99% copied from Michaels Toroidal Helix script, with I think, one added parameter.

@danperk
Does the rectangular pattern are separated objects or just one object boolean union?
from my tests both is working
but maybe one is best than some?

Hi Pilou,

They were separated objects. As you say, both would work but it's easier to modify the pattern as separated items.

I use the CurveLengthV2 script to copy/paste the width/height from destination object to rectangular base object.
From Petr's MoI page:
http://kyticka.webzdarma.cz/3d/moi/
http://plugmoi.voila.net/index.htm

PS. If you wanted to manufacture this object, it would be better to Boolean union the pattern. :)

Thx for the infos!

vois êtes les bienvenus!
