Amapi Tutorial : Mold, MetaNurbs
 
1. Mold Two very interesting and easy to use tools which give interesting and fun results, especially combined with the Animation Tool.
2. MetaNurbs They allow you to distort your models very intuitively, making your model feel like rubber.

1. Mold

There are many ways to use this tool, depending on if you use it with a polyhedral or nurbs object, or on a group.

Grouped objects: the circle represents the surface you are distorting. You can increase or decrease it by pressing the + and - keys.

  

Polyhedral object: the + and - keys increase or decrease the number of faces under control.

 


2. MetaNurbs

The MetaNurbs tool works on a control box around the object. This tool works only with polyhedral objects, but you manipulate it like nurbs. This is very powerful!
