After one of my commenters requested a tutorial on the creation of this cushion, I started thinking about how to go about doing this.
Unfortunately a lot of folks request tutorials on topics too broad or lengthy for me to cover in a simple one-screencast sitting, but the Papasan request was manageable. My commenter’s request was simple and to the point.

This is a pretty funny, yet eye opening story. It's weird that a company would use the same technology as a summertime children's water toy for defense of a shipping vessel. The other interesting part of this story is that most of the defense system relies on water jets that can fill the enemy vessels with water as they are trying to board. The flailing hoses are mostly a psychological deterrent. #blog

My favorite tip is the fill opacity shortcut:
Holding down shift and tapping 1 through 0 will give you fill levels between 10% to 100%. The same applies here where tapping multiple numbers in quick succession of one another will give you specific fill percentages.

A simple Xpresso motorcycle chain rig for Cinema 4D. This rig was originally created for some of my higher polycount bike models. Its purpose is to provide an easily poseable motorcycle/bicycle/chainsaw style chain that uses Instances to replicate the links.
The length of the chain can be adjusted by adding additional link instances, and the spline that the chain rests on can also be easily manipulated and animated. There is also an animatable value that can be used to make the chain progress.

I’ve been working on this project for a long time. It’s very close to being finished and I wanted to share a render from the end of the modeling phase. About 99% of the geometry is completed at this point and I’m about to begin the texturing phase. Unlike my previous models, this bike will not be fully UV Mapped. The model uses geometry to tell most of the story instead of heavy use of texture maps.
